Unfortunately the issue still persists and it doesn't seem to be related to caching.

I think the problem might be that NetNewsWire doesn't support SVG favicons (/y18.svg) and that /favicon.ico isn't available as a fallback. Were there any changes regarding these files recently?

There were! That would likely be the issue then.

What do I need to do to make /favicon.ico available as a fallback?

https://news.ycombinator.com/favicon.ico would need to return the favicon instead of 404 Not Found

I've put it back. Does it work now?

Yes, it's working again. Thank you!
