Description Jakub Steiner 2017-11-16 19:00:48 UTC 
While this applies to the fullcolor icons as well, the exposure has flipped and fullcolor is secondary. Some metaphors really don't work for symbolic icons now:

- Notifications. Commonly used metaphor is a bell these days
- Privacy.
- Default applications. 
- Sound.
