Hi guys. If it’s not a bug - why I needed to on ‘force https’ in order to have favicon work?

I’m pretty sure that https has been required for some years now. I think that favicons are not the only thing that’s broken without https.

I was being specific - or perhaps not enough? - 'force https’ in ‘settings’ I had to enable for favicon to appear, even with https protocol already set & used on the web server end.

Maybe it should just be enabled by default? Maybe it’s better to just be broken if they somehow try not to use https.
