For context to my answer, I had to look up a relevant logo to put my @ on a thing for a project that's being exhibited to the public, and for which we had to provide a social media handle.

(And then the people putting the posters together told me it was 'too busy and doesn't print well in black and white' and asked for a simpler one 🙄)

Interesting results!

So yes, this is the official unofficial fediverse logo, of course, or a logo proposal that's most commonly used.

Here's a great thread about its history.

A fun read on the history of the (proposed) fediverse logo.

"A lot of people think that the pentacle was chosen because of its occult or satanic connotations. And while it would be in Fediverse's rebellious spirit, this was not the case."
