Hello Geminauts,

Hi!

I have made my decision regarding favicon support in Amfora. They are currently
opt-in, and now they will be removed.

I like the favicon proposal, i do not think is harmful, illegal ormorally wrong when the choice to use this feature is left to user withan opt-in mechanism, moreover i think the best way to resist totracking is to keep the protocol simple so that many different clientcan exists and people could choose the client that better fits theirtastes or needs.

FWIW I am going to keeps favicon as opt-in feature in my client.

Moreover i am likely the only user of my client so if you find arequest to favicon.txt probably you can consider this my salute toyou! :-D

Bye!C.
