Hello,

So everything is working but I get errors in my logs that I could just suppress, but I would rather just fix the error.

NGINX Error:
775#775: *2421 open() "/usr/share/nginx/html/favicon.ico" failed (2: No such file or directory)

Django Error (warning):
Not Found: /favicon.ico

So here's where things get interesting. I don't want to serve a favicon this way because I can't do a media query. I inline my favicon such that I can do a media query to detect light/dark mode and change the color of the favicon accordingly. If I save the inline code as a svg the media query will not work.

Is there a way around this, or I am forced to choose from implementing the media query at the nginx layer or not having my theme-responsive favicon?

Thanks very much! I hope this is interesting to someone because I think it's super neat to have the favicon change color based on a media query.

Best Regards,

-James Logan
