  • Chrome: Favicons are displayed using the favicon cache.
  • Firefox: Since firefox doesn't expose the favicon cache, the extension needs to do it manually. By using the "tabs" permission, the addon can store the favicons when you visit a site. Until you have visited a bookmark, a color will be generated for the website based on the hostname. The alternative to the "tabs" permission would be to use Google favicon cache which is not ideal.
