Hello everyone,

for a while now, the display of icons, whether in the personal toolbar or in bookmarks, has not shown the site's logo.
I am attaching 2 screenshots.
I want to clarify that on Opera, all icons display correctly.
There is therefore an issue with Firefox.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

Normal...

Each bookmark is associated with an icon.
Some sites offer a specific one.
For others, Firefox uses a globe by default if the site does not provide the icon.
To put it simply, it's the site in question that provides the icon, so in the opposite case, if the site does not provide the icon, the link in the bookmark will remain with a default globe.

Yes, I know that. But I clearly stated that on Opera, all shortcuts have an icon that allows you to recognize the site.
There is indeed a problem on Firefox.

I take the case of Wikipedia: I log in regularly and yet the globe always appears

here are a few: Wikipedia, Bricomarché, Aldi, Bureau Vallée, Reverso, ViaMichelin... and I have more, the vast majority of which are well-known sites.

On my side, it's the opposite. I'm increasingly thinking that Firefox is losing it!
Regarding the page of the site "theggekpage.com", if you're talking about point 5 (clearing the cache), I do it regularly and there's no change.
In any case, don't use point 3 because it completely transformed all my icons into globes!!!
I'll try point 6 when I have time because the process is long!
Otherwise, anyone else have a solution to this problem?

This is intentional by Mozilla according to this article: https://www.panoptinet.com/cybersecurite-decryptee/firefox-moins-de-favicon-plus-de-securite.html

Exactly, the icons are in the tabs but it's still unpleasant. I would really like to find the solution to restore those favicons.

yes me too because to place the most shortcuts in my personal bar I emptied the name field. So finding a site without its favicon, hello!!!

I am not convinced by your argument. The site icon should appear like all the others. Moreover, in light of Brucine's post, there is clearly something wrong since some of those icons appear normally and for me they do not (and vice versa).

Hello,

Same for me and I find it very unpleasant. I read an article stating that it's intended for greater security. I'm sharing the link here: https://www.panoptinet.com/cybersecurite-decryptee/firefox-moins-de-favicon-plus-de-securite.html

The article dates back to 2012, but well, maybe they decided it would be this way in 2022.
