Did PF get a new favicon?

A favicon, short for "favorite icon," is a small icon that appears next to a website's name in a browser tab or bookmark. It is important for a website because it helps to visually identify and distinguish the website from others, making it more memorable and recognizable to users.
Changing the favicon does not have a direct impact on a website's performance. It is a small file and does not significantly affect page load times. However, a high-quality favicon can improve the overall aesthetic of the website and potentially attract more visitors.
Yes, you can customize the favicon for your own website. There are various free tools and online generators available that allow you to create a favicon in different sizes and formats. You can also hire a designer to create a unique favicon for your website.
Yes, the new favicon will be visible on all devices as long as they have a modern web browser. However, some older browsers may not support the latest favicon formats, so it is important to choose a format that is widely compatible.
There is no set rule for how often a website should update its favicon. However, it is recommended to update it if you rebrand your website or want to give it a fresh look. It is also a good idea to periodically check and update your favicon to ensure it is compatible with the latest web browsers and devices.
