Edit: As @bdonvr@thelemmy.club points out below

  1. This is just a mascot and is not a new logo
  2. The blog referencing Mozilla’s statement on the mascots gender says, (he/she/they/them/it), use whatever pronoun you prefer.

It isn't, though. They never said that the mascot was non-binary.

they do though via stating its pronouns - even including it, repeatedly referring to it even in their intro blog post as “they”

but that’s because it’s a feature to increase the feeling friendliness of the browser by establishing personal connection via the application of any (or non-) gender by the user no matter their preference rather than intended as a portrayal of a sentient character having made a decision for themselves

Awww bummer. I was excited for the NB fox.

[-] WillFord27@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

The fox is schrodinger's gender so... they/them until proven guilty?

that’s exactly it: in context, kit is a feature intended to be interpreted by the user; not a representation of a sentient character having made a conscious choice to be non-binary simply because of mozilla’s chosen pronouns and lack of gender expression
