Bug ID: 473123
Summary: Inclusive Transport Icon
Classification: Applications
Product: KDE Itinerary
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: All
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: vkra...@kde.org
Reporter: chris.seife...@onenetbeyond.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
The KDE Itinerary application currently displays an aeroplane icon as its app
logo, representing the travel planning feature of the application. I propose
that the icon be updated to better reflect other modes of transport, such as
trains, which reflect the sustainability values of the KDE community.
***
Rationale:
In times of impending climate disaster, it is important to reflect
environmental values. A more inclusive transport icon demonstrates sustainable
travel options and encourages users to consider environmentally friendly
alternatives to flying.
Proposed solution:
- Replace the current aeroplane icon with a more generic transport icon
representing a combination of public transport vehicles such as trains, buses
and trams. This change would make the app icon more inclusive and highlight the
different sustainable travel options available to users.
- Alternatively, if a more specific icon is desired, consider using an icon
that represents a train, as trains are often a more sustainable alternative to
air travel for long distance travel.
Benefits:
- Aligns with the promotion of sustainability and environmentally friendly
practices.
- Encourages users to consider green travel options when planning their trips.
- Reinforces KDE's identity as a sustainability-conscious community.
I'm not a designer, but I could try to help create an icon that would help
promote and reflect an environmentally conscious attitude among users :)
