I actually think the original more detailed logos are worse. I don't need clutter on the screen and it just looks nicer on it's own

2017 logo looks fucking sick though

I personally like the 4th one the most. It's modern looking and recognisable, simple but not over simplified.
@Victor Rosales yeah that one is really good as well. The blue earth is also the early time symbol of internet. But if you think about the overall style of current windows, macos, ios and Android, I think it's fair to say that the flatter one fits slightly better. Either is much better than the current one and much much better than the up coming one lol.
Instead of removing the blue sphere, should've changed it to brown it'll be more accurate to how earth's basically became shit now.
The first three are too detailed, the fourth one has beautiful colours and is detailed enough to be cute, while the fifth is too 2d and undersaturated. Fourth is best!
i like 1 and 3 the most
Best one is fifth one. At the first stage, detailed logos might seem good, however simple logos don't make you bored independent of time.

Notice how every logo has turned into a super simple design. Pretty soon, all the logos are just going to be shaped like squares and circles.
In scifis, especially scifis with super modern ages where everything is robotic/digital (star wars and wall-e for examples), logos are pretty simple. If things in scifi becomes real, I'm afraid the free expressions of logos are silenced by trend (and will be mocked if they don't)
You may rarely see logos on them
Be like japan, they rarely change logos (even japanese yahoo is still using old logo) and they're still using old techs for convenience and/or aesthetics (that's why some kawaii lovers have old-fashioned gadgets, and this is may the answer why is nintendo different)

It's worth noting that legally Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit that aims to improve open internet accessibility.
The Mozilla Corporation is the arm of the foundation that is for-profit, which ultimately does have some impact on the logo's design as far as user satisfaction goes.
It's also worth noting that some articles claim Firefox is faster and more efficient, but the general consensus is that Chrome is better.

Actually Mozilla, the company behind Firefox is a non-profit organization with the goal of keeping the web save and open.
The reason they make all these other products now is to finance the further development of Firefox, an open source alternative to Safari and Chrome.

"Make tons of money." You do know the Mozilla is a Non-for-Profit, right? They are barely making enough money to continue operation. It's actually a pretty big problem they are facing.
They do have a For Profit branch but all its profit goes to the Non Profit branch to help support it
Edit: at least to my knowledge
You're right, the Mozilla Foundation is legally non-profit - I was looking at the amount the for-profit Mozilla Corporation makes per year, and it's good that they pump it into the Foundation.

Conspiracy theory: Corporations are getting artists to create more basic, minimalist logos as an excuse to pay them less.
That’s not a theory bruv, that’s what they’re doing.
Thats pretty much a fact at this point
Well but they wouldn't make their whole logo look bad for saving some dollars
From what I heard it's an excuse to use less ink for printing their logos
@@FakestLoogi now that makes sense, I was wondering why they would make their logo look bad for a couple of dollars.
I like how the last logo with the fox is just smugly looking at the camera like
“You don’t know crap watch this” as if he new about the new logo
I like the 2017 logo the best, while not being too busy it still keeps the same "heart" as the earlier logos. It's an actually well simplified logo, after that it went to too simple.
Every one is talking about how the fox died, but what happened to the fire?

The fire is the fox
What happened to the palm

The one he shows at the end is Mozilla Corporation, a subsidiary of Mozilla Foundation and not a non-profit company

The fuck? The sonic sit. Is so far from this one. Just accept that companies can do whatever the fuck they want with their logo and move on. It's literally just a 30 pixel icon.

Companies need to be careful with minimalism. It can easily get to the point that it gets too hard to tell one logo from another, which pretty much defeats the point of logos.
Also, keep the fox, but bring back the globe. The globe made it clearer that it was an internet browser. A blue orb doesn't get that point across as well.

they didn't change it, the browser has the same logo as before, the greater mozzila company just changed it.
Attention probably. It definitely has worked so far
@Geo S No, not really. Minimalism doesnt mean they are talentless. It takes talent to create minimalistic logos that are still recognisable and memorable
@Geo S simplism in logos tends to be more easily to remember and a little more pleasing to sight, and for a company it is better to make their product easier to remember for its clients.
