Description

I have "auth_basic" enabled in Nginx on the server (the built-in Selfoss auth is too expiration-happy to be usable).
I put the creds in the URL string in the app (BTW I hope they don't travel over the Internets like that?).

Things work, but the app does not show site favicons any more.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Disable the built-in auth in Selfoss
  2. Configure "auth_basic" in Nginx
  3. Fumble with the reader configuration until things work
  4. Observe sudden lack of favicons

Device

  • Device (manufacturer, model ...): Xiaomi, Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G
  • OS (Android Version, ROM/Stock, Rooted/not, mods...): HyperOS 1 (Android 14), stock, not rooted, not modded
  • App version (See Prerequisites): 124123421-github
