Referal link interferes with website favicon #188
Description
Activity
This is more or less a known issue that we've just become used to. The DuckDuckGo API we used to get website icons isn't the best thing. We switched from the Google API, which worked a bit better, and I might add in an option to use this one again.
Right now there inst really a way to get around this. Since the icon you're trying to display is from humblebundle you can use a custom button and get the icon from font awesome.
There are plans to implement buttons with custom icons, but we're still in the planning phase.

Using the docker image, I'm using a referal link for Humble Bundle (https://www.humblebundle.com/?partner=linx_esp) and the link icon is changed to "custom_website".
When loading the littlelink page it shows a generic icon, the console outputs
GET https://icons.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.humblebundle.com/?partner=linx_esp.ico 404https://icons.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.humblebundle.com/?partner=linx_esp.ico gives a different icon than https://icons.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.humblebundle.com
I don't how to test if it is because of humble bundle / duckduckgo / littlelink
In case of this issues not being caused by littlelink, is it a way around it? i haven't see an option to manual select a custom icon based on a link (Guess there is an option and didn't see it)
