My hacker news icon has been stuck as the icon for a weather site that I sometimes check. It’s been stuck that way for close to a year now, and has survived an iOS update too.

It persists across profiles and into private browsing mode.

To me HN has been stuck as Facebooks icon for a really long time.

You guys have favicons? I don't have any in my tabs, but maybe I have turned that of at some point. I'm using Mozilla Firefox.

Firefox and Safari both have favicons in the tabs.

Yes, I also have them in general, e.g. on about:newtab, but for HN, there isn't any shown on the tab (there is if I make a bookmark). Maybe I messed something up.

Could site icons be connected somehow to iCloud?
