Description
Hello @Lunarequest, we are tracking a bunch of applications with trademark violations.
Since this is a fork of the official Github desktop client, you cannot use their name "Github Desktop" and their trademarked icon for an unofficial fork.
Please try to use your own icon and name for the application to avoid trademark issues and confusing people. I think 2 months is a reasonable time period for us to wait for the icon to be changed.
You can find some resources for icon guidelines in https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/quality-guidelines#app-icon and name in https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/quality-guidelines#app-name
And the guidelines on trademarks https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/quality-guidelines#no-trademark-violations

Research direction
Start by locating the application's metadata and icon assets, then review the linked Flathub app-name, app-icon, and trademark guidelines. Done means the unofficial fork uses its own name and icon without the GitHub Desktop branding.
