Is there a way to display text instead of the sign-in icon? Users are confused.

Hello folks,

When users access our confluence cloud instance, we reliably get a few questions a month about why certain content is not available, and the answer invariably ends up being that they are not signed in. To quote a user:

I didn't realize that was a login symbol.

I'm with the user on this one. Tiny rectangle with an arrow pointing in is not the most obvious tell that a user isn't logged in, especially since our users are able to access some content without needing to sign in. I've also had users mistake this as a "sign-out" button, with the rectangle and arrow representing "leaving a room" or "shutting a door" or similar.

Is there a way to adjust this icon for our instance so that instead of being tiny and inconspicuous, it says "Log in" or "Sign in" or something like that, similar to how it's presented on atlassian.com?

If not, could Atlassian please consider making this change on their end to bring atlassian.net more in line with atlassian.com? This seems like too important an action to not have actual text for.

Thank you!
