Description

About this discussion

the outlined design of lawnicons is very hard to distinguish at a home screen density any smaller than like, 4 columns in so far as points against this go: a large part of md3 is consistent colors, this would break that also it would be a lot of work with how many icons already have been added

but it would be nice. maybe
