Just to make sure there isn't any problem and we are seeing the same thing I've taken a screenshot. Is this how you see it as well?
Most of the space at the top and left of the logo corresponds to the modal padding, which we'd like to keep symmetrical around the whole content. The rest is intended to separate a bit the logo from the grey section on its right while respecting the logo proportions. We could increase it a bit, but not much as it'd mean making the full header taller and pushing the rest of the content below further down. In this particular case the details modal isn't very tall and it wouldn't matter, but others have much more content (specially projects) and the more we can display without having to scroll down, the better.
But you are right, logos are smaller in general (except in the grid view, where they are larger), it's been a deliberate decision. We've traded some logo space to be able to display much more information in a clearer way. Cards now use a bigger font that's easier to read, and display quite a bit of information, like some links, category, tag, description, etc. IMHO this makes navigating the landscape easier for users as in many cases they don't need now to even open the details modal to know what an item is about. And the same card is available on grid mode when hovering over any logo.
We'll try making it a bit larger on the details modal as discussed above, hope that helps 🙂

hi team, I'm curious about the much smaller logo size in V2 vs V1 - I like the look of V2 a lot, but it's very text-heavy. I was wondering about possibly increasing the size of the logos by 50% or so? Or at least making the logos bigger on each individual card once you click on it (like this). There's a lot of empty space in the grey box at the top of each card. Thanks!
