#2I love that people are rediscovering SVG
I hope this gathers stream and forces Google (and others, but especially Google) to fix the bugs they have in the format

#3I have been using https://simpleicons.org for a while now. It is super light and looks great. License is CC0. Although I prefer inlining the icons over using tags.

That's a wonderful resource - thanks for sharing. I'm certainly going to incorporate them into future versions.

I wish they had implemented gradients in a way that didn't depend on uri fragments. Not an issue with standalone svg images, but it means you have to manage namespace clashes for inline svg images.

SVG is making a monster come back... and we absolutely need Gmail to get onboard.

Could you elaborate on the bugs in SVG? Are there any usability issues beyond the bugs? I tried some cursory googling 'why not to use svg', 'svg bugs', etc and didn't really find any common/recurring.

You can minify those a lot. I tried some on https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/ and got ~20%-30% without any visual changes.

I love that SVG survived! It dates back to 1999 and was almost forgotten. When D3js first got started around 2010/2011 I was astonished that SVG support was so good in so many browsers; Mike had been using it even earlier with Protovis and Polymaps. Everything but IE had support as some sort of unnused vestigal thing. And then interactive visualizations started using SVG regularly and now it's vital again.

#10Very cool! I would advise to try minifying with svgomg, some icons seem to benefit. Eg bitbucket.svg can be reduced by 20% without any visual change.
