I have the same issue. The icon is there, but its opacity is set to zero, so it’s not visible.

```plaintext

.cooked h1 a.anchor, .cooked h2 a.anchor, .cooked h3 a.anchor, .cooked h4 a.anchor, .cooked h5 a.anchor, .cooked h6 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h1 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h2 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h3 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h4 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h5 a.anchor, .d-editor-preview h6 a.anchor

Specificity: (0,2,2)

{

opacity: 0;

transition: opacity .25s;

}

```

I cannot see the icons in the OP either, so that rules out any custom styling on my instance.

I’m using Chrome.
