The rainbow flag is already trans inclusive, the rainbow includes everyone

But its nice to have the actual colors on it though. I like switching between the 2 because they both look really nice.

As a matter of color I don't like the abrupt transition from pastel cyan to brown... but it's nice for what it means.

I like this Julia Feliz diagonal one much better: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:New_Pride_Flag_by_Julia_Feliz_2018.svg

idk it doesn't seem so jarring to me that way. Maybe because the absence of the bend avoids emphasizing the contact and thus contrast with the pastel cyan.

I believe the triangle having that shape is relevant because of other pride flags with that layout (demisexual at least) but I do find the one you posted a little nicer.

I don't really understand why progress pride flag with the intersex flag is so rare though either.

The chevron is a shape present in many flags in general.

Me neither.
