Does this make sense to anyone?

From a design perspective isn't it normal to puck an icon set which has drawn these icons in a specific style. Individually they follow diffent, shape/colour rules so look messy.

It depends what you’re using them for, but it’s pretty common to use the original icons of other services/companies if you’re using them on your website rather than a stylized version.

In my experience, anyways, that’s more common than using a stylized version of a 3rd party logo - and that’s not to mention potential legal issues with using an altered version of a 3rd party’s icon.

Brand guidelines almost always state not to stylise the logo, so this would be the correct way of doing things.

You can still style them in the color you want and show their respective brand colors on hover.
