Font-awesome: Icon Request: fa-gab (gab.ai gab-ai)

[PastorBones]

I'm looking for an icon for the new social site GAB.ai.

Here is a 100x100 png

Any progress made with this icon?

[cromartie1984]

i second that request

Any update on this?

[mslighthouse]

This would be awesome to have! Is there an update on this?

What is the status of this request?

I would also like to see this icon added. I have clients who have Gab links included in their social media lists and all of the other networks have FA icons. Not having an icon for Gab means having to use a ‘generic’ icon that looks silly in a list of social media links.

[MrBergstad]

Request supported.

Gab.ai is one of the fastest growing social media today and more and more companies/organizations sign up on there.
As an addition to the request:
Free gab is green and paid (Pro) is yellow.

I fully and completely support this. How do we petition Font Awesome to add a Gab icon?

[Zyniker13]

@ktaherig As this project is known to have virtue-signalling tendencies (see, e.g., the gun icon request: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/3888), it may be that a Gab icon never materializes.

[ktaherig]

That is unfortunate, I must say. Well, in any case, thank you for your time, and have a great day!

Guess it’s time to stop using Font Awesome. 😎👏🏼

Holy social justice nonsense.

+1 for a Gab icon, their reach continues to grow monthly. It's kind of beyond obvious now that FA is holding out on certain icons to force people into the PRO version. That's their choice, but it seems a bit foolish to pick and choose which massively popular services they support by default...

For example, even Crunchbase is still missing.

You might be right, although FA has not publicly commented on that thread to date. However, with 52 gender-related icons and still no basic "gun" icon, it does appear that Dave Gandy has already made his leftist political activism obvious to a point of no return.

I do think it's a strategic mistake for FA to get too cocky and biased; time will tell. Personally, this is why I held off on giving Dave money on Kickstarter... but he has certainly perfected the art of getting hipsters to pay for a service that they have to pay for again, anyways... lol

Perhaps my next project will be to learn a combination of R, Python, and Matlab to devise a Machine Learning algorithm that calculates the Wage Gap™©® between all 9001√π genders.

I don't think whatever politics have any place in such projects. Now, I also request a Gab icon.

And one more request: an open source fonticon library. Can we start working on that?

[SpyderZ]

I think the people at FA are scared of technologies that allow anyone to sign-up and have free speech. It literally triggers their Chi-com conditioned brains on how the network administrator will not protect them from opinions they disagree with.
