Additional Tag Icons

It would be nice to have additional tag icons. Especially since the app is tag based having that visual reference really helps and also adds an overall nicer looking setup :slight_smile:

Is there an “easy” way to just reference the Apple Icons that seemingly show up in all apps?

If I can piggyback on this, are the icons getting a visual overhaul at some point? I generally find them ugly. Craft has done a better job with custom icons.

We’ll possibly add more tagcons after the Bear 2 release. If you have some tagcon you want to see feel free to suggest them here.

No, tagcons need to respect some rules to fit in Bear, and SF Symbols can go out of the boundaries.

Wouldn’t it be worth changing bear so it can use the large number of SF symbols?

I would love to see a Mastodon, Pixelfed and a ActivityPub icon.

Are those tagcons part of an official icon set or are they your own creation?

If we want tagcons to work also on the web we can’t rely on SF symbols.

Yes.

More programming language icons needed plz. Currently we have python, swift…, if languages like Rust and Perl are added, it would be better.

Reviving this topic, any word on when we’ll see new tag cons?
