6.272/365: new blue

Rant:

Facebook likes to make changes. Sometimes small, sometimes sweeping. A few days ago, Zuck and company made a change that is driving me up the wall. I did some Googling and only a few other people are bothered by this.

Behold my current iPhone home screen:

Anything look off? Any color jump out at you?

IT’S THE BLUE!

Facebook used to have a nice medium blue color. Now it’s garish and ugly, too bright for an icon or logo. It has been changed on the site as well, though it’s less noticeable because it’s just text.

Not convinced? Here’s the old and new side by side.

Still with me? Do your eyes hurt?

I hope they go back to the old blue or find a less obnoxious hue.

Rant over.
