Yes, they all still issue several favicon requests, so far as I'm aware. Having one, instead of returning a 404, can speed up the page load. Which makes 0 sense

- dyanaraps 7y agoThis is how I avoid this issue entirely: <link href=data:, rel=icon> This is the smallest possible "null" favicon. It causes the browser to display nothing and ensures 0 HTTP requests for the favicon!
- SquareWheel 7y agoDoes the browser display the generic "no favicon" icon, or is it just completely blank? I like the idea.
