Website doesn't show its icon

Hi, I have a pinned a website that will not show its icon (it won't when unpinned either).

Using the latest FF, Edge will show an icon. Is there a way to refresh FF and make it refetch the correct icon?

Thanks

Photo of the icon I do get.

Yes, the site icon thing is a bit of mystery. In one of my folders only a few show, but if I open the sites the icon shows. see screenshots I assume the same for you after you visit the site. Any other questions? If not, mark it as resolved and have a nice day.

For me the bookmark actually shows the icon, only when the site is loaded I don't see it.

Show examples of a site. Also try doing a CTRL+i to see the sites info and see if there is .ico file there like in the screenshot I posted.

For example: https://animepahe.si

This site has an icon.

You can report it here. https://webcompat.com/issues/new It's a wrap for me.
