How do I get favicon icons to appear in the favourites page of Safari

Some website Favicons appear on the favourites page of Safari but not all.

I have set Favicons to appear ("Show website icons and tabs) in the Safari Preferences and they all appear on the TABS but they do not appear on the FAVOURITES page.

MacBook Pro 15", 10.14

Favicons in Favorites Bar? Wondering if there's been any progress on favicons for the favorites bar? Like so many others, I've tried to make the switch from Chrome to Safari but this is a hard deal breaker.

Why aren't there favicons in the Safari favorites bar? Every other modern browser allows me to see the favicon of a favorite/saved site in the favorites bar. This makes it easy to access my favorites. But Safari only lets me list text! I want to make the switch from Chrome to Safari to take advantage of the speed with apple silicon, but it's a blocker! Feels like a big oversight.

Favicon for websites not showing in Safari I really want to use Safari as my main browser now that I am using a new M1 MacBook Air, in order to make the best use of battery. I have used both Chrome and Firefox as my main browser. One of the things I REALLY like about those browsers is that I can add favourite/bookmarks to the toolbar with *just* the website's icon (favicon) and quickly pick from that. I imported bookmarks from Firefox to Safari, but the favicons are missing. I did try visiting those sites to pull in the icons (this is the behaviour with Firefox if starting from fresh). I have ensured that 'Show website icons in tabs' in selected in Preferences, FWIW. The screenshot below shows how the favourites with icons are great in Firefox but poop in Safari. Honestly, this is the only blocker to me using Safari as main browser. I really cannot understand why these icons are not showing 🤷‍♂️
