Deprecate yandex icon?

[Rotzbua]

Problem

It seems that the yandex browser icon is not relevant anymore.

The generation was introduced with #21 in 2014. But there is no documentation or reference.

Today the browser is just another chromium based browser. So the requirements should not be different.
Source: Blink web browser engine and is based on the Chromium open source project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yandex_Browser

Solution

A. Find documentation and add it to this project.
or
B. Deprecate the option.

Additional note

While research I found following maybe important information about favicons and yandex search engine:

Recommendations on the format and size of favicons
Size: 120 × 120, 32 × 32, or 16 × 16 pixels.
Format: SVG (recommended), ICO, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and BMP. Animation is not supported.

While Yandex browser is a chromium-based one, it has a unique feature named Tableau.

I think (couldn't find a lot of information) at the time it was added, the yandex browser was not chromium based and so used a unique icon size.

it has a unique feature named Tableau.

Opera has a similar looking feature. Also the icons seem not to be squares?

I think Russian focused developers have much more detailed information on how the yandex browser currently behaves and can share it.

Yandex Browser v1.0 release announcement

Now about what's inside. WebKit was chosen as the engine, which is supported by many developers. The interface is based on the open source Chromium.

It was Chromium from the beginning.
