    davwheat Haha this is so great!! I just remembered the topic today and you magically came up with this 🎩🪄

    It even allows to handle the pro version, which so many users here on Discuss over the years have asked for it, maybe it's a bit out of the project philosophy but I even see this as a future extension of core to handle Font Awesome (?) 🤔

      davwheat What is the difference between having the extension and using the <script src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/zzzzzzz.js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> that is provided by fontawsome

            Just a curious thing, why do you think the search icon goes up a bit? it seems that removing line-height: 1; from that particular icon fixes it.

            Is discuss.flarum.org now using Fontawesome 6? Because discuss.flarum.org icons is different
