Does anyone knows why?
Did you add the favicon after google indexed your page? The docs say that:
Google looks for and updates your favicon whenever it crawls your home page. If you make changes to your favicon and want to inform Google about the changes, you can request indexing of your site's home page. Updates can take a few days or longer to appear in search results.https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/favicon-in-search

favicon.ico in the ico format as a fallbackI've had issues with svgs as icons on chrome so you should definitely use smth like .ico or .png
Svgs worked for me but the custom fonts didn't load (oh wait just realized your talking about in search results)
yeah i did request indexing
ohh i'll try
hahah no worries
Maybe the icons size isn't right?
"must be a multiple of 48px square"
