Favicons in Google search results are too big.

Please fix it so that we can either shut off or resize favicons in Google search results. This is with Firefox 123.0 using the default settings for fonts. It used to be that filters for Ublock and ABP would eliminate favicons totally. I'd prefer that solution since to me they serve no purpose. But at least make them reasonable sized.

Never mind... there was a filter that was working on blocking the URL but not the favicon. So now we are just stuck with favicons. The whole Favicon thing is too man-bun java jockey pitiful python pirate for me. Love to get rid of them. I read text - not cute little icon things.

And yea I use python for engineering stuff. But you know, we had such hope for all this tech when I designed one of the first CGA interfaces for the IBM PC in 1982. Even IBM thought it was a fad and used an old Zenith NTSC with some mods for RGB/sync with the first CGA monitors.

But then the shiny shoes guys got involved and made it so tech was "cool" so now parents want kids to go into STEM when they really don't want to. Kinda sad. So now I'm stuck with glitzy, useless favicons... even the name - Favicon. So man-bun cool
