Hit 50,000 followers and my logo was a hot mess the whole time

I hit 50k on Instagram last month and realized my logo doesn't scale down at all on mobile. It's got these tiny thin lines that turn into a blurry blob under 40 pixels. The old one I had before was blocky and ugly but at least you could read it. Anyone else deal with a logo that looked great on desktop but falls apart on a phone screen?

turns into a blurry blob under 40 pixels" - that's exactly what happened to me but with my print materials. Nobody ever talks about how a logo looks on a physical business card vs a monitor. I had this gorgeous thin-line logo that looked amazing on my laptop but when I printed it on a business card the lines just vanished. It was basically invisible. So I feel your pain but from the other side of the screen. Maybe try testing your logo at actual physical sizes before you get too settled on something.

Right there with you. My old logo was a thin line nightmare on anything smaller than a billboard.
