one of the challenges i see with this logo is that it can only be used vertically, and only quite large. here's a quick mockup of how it would look as a horizontal stack: https://i.imgur.com/S8RtqS2.png

with this arrangement, the character is leaning away from and pointing away from the words, and scaling down the character has made it difficult to make out the details of their pose (is that a hand? is the face empty? etc.).

Are we sure that's an actual logo meant to be used for anything besides maybe the repo considering it's a representation of "Yari", which is just a codename?

The previous backend was codenamed "Kuma" and was represented with a bear, but wasn't displayed anywhere on the actual MDN platform.

MDN is MDN, and the branding will stay the same.

Yari is a codename for the effort to move MDN closer to a static site architecture.

Interesting, I do like the layout here, but I do agree with your points.
