OS: Big Sur
Browser: Safari 14.1

Hey, I found that there is no favicon on Safari browser when using react-favicon.
It is also not visible on demo page.

The way react-favicon adds the icon link(s) doesn't seem to work in Safari anymore, a suggested fix would be very welcome.

Interestingly the favicon isn't shown for other major sites either, like apple.com, gmail.com, wikipedia.org. But the github favicon is displayed (Safari 14.0.3).

Safari cache favicon quite aggressively, so even if you manage to get it to work with basic images URL, I'm quite sure:

  • Animations won't work
  • Alert "icons" won't work

Even after clearing the Safari cache it doesn't work. Any updates on this?

I'm sorry to say that I'm not looking into this, but I'd be happy to try out and merge a PR to address it.
