I'd rather stick with the https://www.s-ings.com/typicons we currently use.

Sure, take a look at qBittorrent for example. They have something similar for magnet URIs

Looks like it should have more padding? I think it should have the same line width.

Is there a reason we can't use the svg directly?
-
emilengler commented at 5:29 PM on August 5, 2019: contributor
@promag Yes there is more padding, I had no idea if there was one already. But in action you won't see the difference
-
jonasschnelli commented at 11:32 AM on August 12, 2019: contributor
Looks in general acceptabel. But the icon needs more padding to look not larger than the other ones.

emilengler commented at 11:44 AM on August 12, 2019: contributor
@jonasschnelli Ok, I will append it.

I like this new icon better for "Open URI" context in menu, but dialog window itself actually has "from URI or file" and for generic "open" functionality that open folder icon is definitely more common (Transmission uses it for both file and magnet link menu items actually).

-
emilengler commented at 11:13 PM on August 13, 2019: contributor
Yeah I also had this in mind, the "..." can be replaced by the open icon
-

Same comment as here: #16584 (comment)
Instead of a flurry of menu icon changes and associated bikeshedding, maybe remove them completely.

@laanwj See my comment in the issue you referenced to, Bitcoin should be accessible for anyone no matter of his education

This way leads to frustration only, IMO.
