This update broke my workflow!
- dang 3y agoI did warn him that people might complain about side effects Edit: believe it or not, we got more complaints about this. Some people picked their top color specifically to go nicely with the orange Y! So I've reverted this change, except for the Christmas case. Users who have set their topcolor don't see the Christmas top bar anyhow, so don't have to worry.
- slymax 3y agois it possible that NetNewsWire (possibly other rss readers as well) don't show the favicon for https://news.ycombinator.com/rss https://news.ycombinator.com/rss anymore because of this change? I noticed this a few days ago
- dang 3y agoHN is still serving the orange Y for favicons. Only the Y to the left of "Hacker News" in the top bar now has a transparent background. However, there was a brief period where we were serving the transparent Y for favicons before I noticed that and corrected it; I wonder if the transparent Y somehow got into a cache? Is there a way to force-refresh?
- slymax 3y agoUnfortunately the issue still persists and it doesn't seem to be related to caching. I think the problem might be that NetNewsWire doesn't support SVG favicons (/y18.svg) and that /favicon.ico isn't available as a fallback. Were there any changes regarding these files recently?
- dang 3y agoThere were! That would likely be the issue then. What do I need to do to make /favicon.ico available as a fallback?
- cantSpellSober 3y agoI use [bgcolor='#ff6600'] as a CSS selector for the <td> wrapping the header to remove the header bar color. So this really did break my workflow, hah
- divbzero 3y agoThat’s pretty amusing. Does switching the CSS selector to td[bgcolor] do the trick?
