Is there a reason behind switching the colors?

Increased contrast, basically

In my very personal and not qualified opinion the new logo feels soulless and less technical than the old one. It is so far removed from a box or the original logo that is becomes hard to tell what the meaning is, especially of the brown elements.
Maybe I am alone with this opinion, but I do not see what is wrong with the current one. The switch before I understood, but for this I do not really get the benefits. Maybe those could be formulated? Why do we need a new logo?

I do not think it is that dissimilar, my main priority was to make it a bit more visually distinct. Especially when it is small, the combination of three separate colors and thin black lines are "lost".

If we wanted to get "abstract" about it, the separate brown outer section represent the various plugins that "surround" the core functionality of InvenTree ;)

But, I just think it looks better :p

maybe we post about this in https://opensourcedesign.net/ and see what professional eyes create with these objectives? To me the new proposal looses identity and looks generic
