  "textContent": "One of the things I think modern software quietly forgot is fun.\n\nMaybe we became to distracterd on the day to day life of affordance and usability,.... we forgot to have a bit of FUN!!\n\n\nSo while revamping the old Oxygen icon set into today, and maybe more importantly filling in all the missing icons that are well… still missing!!… me and mostly Pravin Kumar have been pushing a bunch of new mimetypes into Oxygen.\n\n\n\n\nJust look at the android apk mimetype Kumar made. Its fun. It makes me smile a little bit when I see it and honestly I think we need more of that.\n\nNot everything has to look like it came out of a enterprise dashboard generated by AI trained on airport signage systems, hey I love airport signage!!! but... ...\n\nAnd thinking about fun I'm also thinking again about possible ideas for a future design language for O².\n\nWhat if icons looked more like depressions on a canvas? Almost paper like. Soft shapes cut from the material while still sharing geometry with the symbolic counterparts.\n\nSomthing like this:\n\nwouldnt this be fun???\n\nDont forget to check the new old Oxygen in the upcoming Plasma release. We had fun making it... maybe you can have fun using it too\n\nAnd yes... we still have a ton of plans for old Oxygen in the upcoming releases.....",
