Questionable choice of marketing image https://telegram.org/img/tl_card_open.png?1

What is it even supposed to convey? It seems that often advertising and marketing forget that they are supposed to, you know, communicate something to someone.
"open"

(Though it doesn't make no sense, and I personally find the illustration more cute than offensive, it was probably a poor choice.)

Well, you can see how it works "under the hood"... not being ashamed of what they are/their works. I kinda understand the rationale for that picture (I'm wondering how hard it would be to draw "open standard" in a pictionary game)

I fully agree on it being questionable, though.
