Improve Site Icons List #9530

Hi,

Could you create new section Social Icons below Brand to allow customers to see only social icons? Because at this moment brand icons list is too long

Best Regards, Nenad

I would go for a social filter.

Just some thoughts: how can we decide if a brand is a social network? Should we adhere to wikipedia's definition?

E.g:

500 px

500px, pronounced five hundred pixels, is a Canadian online photography community and marketplace

It doesn't seem a social network by wiki's definition, but it is definitely social

Flickr

Flickr (pronounced "flicker") is an image hosting and video hosting website and web services suite that was created by Ludicorp in 2004

It doesn't seem a social network by wiki's definition, but the website contains "Picture galleries available with social networking", so it is social

YouTube

YouTube is a global video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California, United States.

Social?

GitHub

GitHub is a web-based Git repository hosting service [...] The site provides social networking-like functions such as feeds, followers, wikis (using wiki software called Gollum) and a social network graph to display how developers work on their versions ("forks") of a repository and what fork (and branch within that fork) is newest.

Social?

Hi,

Filter is also good solution :)

Yes, this can be the problem. Wikipedia have some article for that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_social_networking_websites

but like you said 500px is social network but it's not in list :/

Also for me YouTube is service
