Icon lacks contrast (too dark) #20

Thanks for Butler - this little, absolutely useful helper. I recognise that the new icon is not very well recognizable since its last revamp - since the icon received its tailcoat. (see screenshot from a Gnome desktop below)

Ideally, improve contrast/modify colors being used or just leave the original HA icon.

Yep, I am still not happy with where this is and will continue to follow/play with the suggestions at https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/app-icon-requests/-/issues/30 to improve it

I don't want to just use the Home Assistant icon itself, though, because it is not actually openly licensed. Incorporating part of its design elements into a unique icon feels okay to me to associate it with the project without using the original icon itself, but it's still a sort of gray area.
