I would like to have my icons (Svgs) and text aligned within the same "container" of my navbar using flexbox, but I’m not able to use the correct rules. The closest I could get is reported in the code below:

:root {
  --bg: #242526;
  --bg-accent: #484a4d;
  --text-color: #dadce1;
  --nav-size: 60px;
  --border: 1px solid #474a4d;
  --border-radius: 8px;
  --speed: 500ms;
}

ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

a {
  color: var(--text-color);
  text-decoration: none;
}

.navbar {
  height: var(--nav-size);
  background-color: var(--bg);
  padding: 0 1rem;
  border-bottom: var(--border);
}

.navbar-nav {
  max-width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  display: flex;
}

.nav-logo {
  color: white;
  margin-right: auto;
}

.nav-item {
  width: calc(var(--nav-size) * 0.8);
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.nav-button {
  --button-size: calc(var(--nav-size) * 0.5);
  width: var(--button-size);
  height: var(--button-size);
  background-color: var(--bg-accent);
  border-radius: 25%;
  padding: 5px;
  margin: 2px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  transition: filter 300ms;
}

.nav-button:hover {
  filter: brightness(1.2);
}

.nav-button svg,
.icon-right svg {
  fill: var(--text-color);
  width: 20px;
  height: 20px;
}

Hello,

The texts were aligned were just not fitting inside the button, because their containers (Nav-item and Nav-button) were of size FIXED!

I traded width for min-width, and the border-Radius of Nav-button for fixed size also!

:root {
  --bg: #242526;
  --bg-accent: #484a4d;
  --text-color: #dadce1;
  --nav-size: 60px;
  --border: 1px solid #474a4d;
  --border-radius: 8px;
  --speed: 500ms;
}

ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

a {
  color: var(--text-color);
  text-decoration: none;
}

.navbar {
  height: var(--nav-size);
  background-color: var(--bg);
  padding: 0 1rem;
  border-bottom: var(--border);
}

.navbar-nav {
  max-width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  display: flex;
}

.nav-logo {
  color: white;
  margin-right: auto;
}

.nav-item {
  min-width: calc(var(--nav-size) * 0.8);
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.nav-button {
  --button-size: calc(var(--nav-size) * 0.5);
  min-width: var(--button-size);
  height: var(--button-size);
  background-color: var(--bg-accent);
  border-radius: 10px;
  padding: 5px;
  margin: 2px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  transition: filter 300ms;
}

.nav-button:hover {
  filter: brightness(1.2);
}

.nav-button svg,

Your problem is the attributes width of .nav-item and .nav-button. If remove, resolves.

This happened because you were using as a basis of calculation the value of --nav-size: 60px, representing the height, and not navigation bar width.

If you want to do something about the width of the navigation bar, you can use percentage values as in the example below, where .nav-item shall have its specified width in relation to the .navbar-nav and the .nav-button shall have its width in relation to the .nav-item:

.nav-item {
  /** Aqui usamos min-width pois, dependendo do tamanho da resolução, o botão
      precisará de mais do que 20% para conseguir ser exibido corretamente **/
  min-width: 20%;
}

.nav-button {
  width: 100%;
}

Of course your code needs more adaptations to be responsive properly, because the buttons are glued and etc., but your problem happened because of this.

:root {
  --bg: #242526;
  --bg-accent: #484a4d;
  --text-color: #dadce1;
  --nav-size: 60px;
  --border: 1px solid #474a4d;
  --border-radius: 8px;
