Today, seven years ago, #mozilla "borrowed" the #curl concept of using :// in the logo:

Is Imitation the Sincerest Form of Flattery ?

Patience, Mozilla changes their logo so often, that I had already forgotten what their logo is. When they rebrand it will be gone 🙂

Tbh, in the moz://a logo, out of all uses I’ve ever seen, it makes the most sense.

@calisti I agree. I tried very hard to get it "merged" into the curl logo somehow but we just did not have the letters for it like Mozilla does!

Very true in this case! 🫡

@rtfm it was not copied from any other logo/company/project at least, because at that time I knew of no such to copy from. But sure, :// has been used since URLs were invented - if not longer.

@rtfm I don't presume in this case. I talked to them so I know how things played out.

And about curl, that word had a meaning before the curl project, yes. Shocking, I know.
