Does anyone else get a corrupt icon in their browser's tab?

TheCasualties · Jul 9, 2020

After about 30 seconds, the icon in this tab gets corrupt. Whenever the page updates (like when it saves a draft, or I get a notification) the colors change.

This is with Firefox & Windows 10. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this. Here are some examples.

What's weird is I've never seen this with other websites. Even ones that have little notification pop-ups on the icon.

I did have some graphic corruption on the Dark Souls wiki a while back, but after raising my voltages a little (got a laptop that runs really hot, under-volting helps), the corruption stopped.

I don't mind the pretty colors, but I'm wondering if some component in my PC is starting to fail?

I have the same issue with other sites.
I'm using Chrome and Win10.
Although, sometimes, the GBATemp Icon would change into one with a supposed notification when there's any at all.

maybe try deleting cache and rebuilding. I don't have this problem.

I haven't deleted the entire cache history in a while, so thanks for the reminder, but it's already happened again!

Thanks for trying!

Nope. I use Windows 10 and Brave browser.

Hmm, Brave seems to avoid this corruption for me as well! I could go back to Brave, but I like all my privacy extensions on Firefox.
