Emojis as favicon
Since browsers have started supporting SVG you can finally have emoji as favicon. Here’s the one-liner in use:
<link rel="icon" href="data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22 viewBox=%220 0 100 100%22><text y=%22.9em%22 font-size=%2290%22>😉</text></svg>">
This works in Firefox and Chrome. Safari only does those “mask” style icons in SVG so this doesn’t work there.
