Did you search for similar issues before submitting this one?
Yes.

Describe the issue you encountered:

@bsclifton @cezaraugusto I'm not sure if you already have an issue for this, I checked but couldn't find one. On my new tab page, the Twitter favicon is blue on green instead of blue on white.

Expected behavior:
It should be blue on white.

  • Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
    macOS

  • Brave Version:
    0.12.10

  • Steps to reproduce:

    1. Open Brave
    2. Visit Twitter (enough times for it to show up on your new tab page)
    3. Open a new tab

Is this maybe fixed on master? Now I'm seeing it correctly!

For tiles' background we rely on site's themeColor. I think that at some point Twitter decided to output themeColor based on account colors (like, mine was black, Brave was orange, etc). But it seems to be removed now.

@cezaraugusto ahhh that's good to know! Thanks for the follow-up, I'll close the issue!

Ideally we could find some good code to get a dominant color from the site favicon. This may be more reliable for the tiles. Safari uses this.

The next best thing is to make a table of favicons and tile colors for the big sites.
