can't lie, i love the new!
It’s growing on me!
oh, for sure! that original will forever be iconic.
true!
looks feels premium
Interesting review
The new wordmark reads cleaner to me at avatar size, the old script gets a little muddy that small. Is this for a client rebrand or something you're testing out for yourself?
This was actually an effort from the internal design team at Meta, I had nothing to do with it, just seeing what others thought about it. You can read more on it here.

The social media giant says it was time for a sharper and more modern look after a decade.
Without any context, and just from a designing perspective, the new version looks better
Smart answer!
I posted a link to context here on one of the responses.
Old seems more legible for me!
Ture! but when a brand has massive global following, is legibility still a concern?
Nice work
nice!
Old one was better in my opinion
That's fair!
I'm not sure I feel strongly about either of them, I understand that's a decision their team took and I respect how they tried to keep some similar lines from the old mark in order to move forward, even if that meant legibility issues, which I'm not sure I see.
They need to adapt to the current trend, this is how any brand grows
I just love the new one.
Solid choice!
The new version looks more creative and advanced
Its the future of the brand!
New one is nice
I agree
the only reason we might think that the old one is better is because we are used to it, the new upgrade is not bad at all, same thing happened when google made some updates
Spoken like a true designer!
solid choice!
sure!

Which hero would you choose — 1 or 2?
Two directions for Amber House, my real estate website template. The first pairs a closer architectural crop with an asymmetric layout. The second gives the building more breathing room, with a wide view and a centered headline.
Same template, two different first impressions. Which feels stronger to you, and why?
