Public bug reported:

Hi,

Notification coming from Chromium web browser ( as a snap ) show generic
icon instead of favicon or website icon or any website picture.

For reference
⋅ https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/notifications-in-chromium-show-generic-icon/21079https://github.com/solus-project/budgie-desktop/pull/2000#issuecomment-653833784https://discourse.ubuntubudgie.org/t/notification-issues/434

It's *not* specific to ( Ubuntu ) Budgie. And to some extent might
affect any chromium snap based web browser.

Interesting insight in second link, quoting :

« Chromium based browser notifications pop up with broken icon images.
This is due to the fact these browsers prefix the icon name in the
notification with "file:///". Furthermore, snap based chromium browsers
save the temporary icon in the snap, and don't pass the correct path to
Raven. If the icon names start with "file:///", clearing the icon name
fixes both of these issues by allowing the browsers to show the correct
image (same as Firefox does), and allows the snaps to default to the
fallback "mail-unread-symbolic" icon, instead of showing a broken image
icon. This fix also should have absolutely no effect on any other
notifications. »
