I have never thought how much pain can be involved in getting this little image from the a given site.
At the same time we all are used to having these images near our links.
I myself am guilty of not taking care of all the formats for icons and probably most of my sites have crappy images for all sizes.
I mean it is taken for granted that your site should have them in all possible sizes, but amount of work needed for that – hardly ever one things of it.
I guess that’s why many sites don’t have them and that’s why icon.horse is solving an important task of figuring out what is often broken on websites.
Thanks for this app and opening my eyes on this side of the internet.
Yes indeed, it actually also made me think just how resilient browsers must be. There are so many horrible sins we all commit against web standards all the time, it's kind of amazing things mostly work.
Man, this is a great!

Hey @kostjapalovic ! Thanks for the comment!

I guess we can only start to understand it when we consume other services, not create our own.
I remember my first time when I was dealing with sendind AND receiving emails. Man, this is even worse than icons 😂
