Bookmarks App: NC 20.0.6 and Bookmarks 4.0.8

Why do my bookmarks not display a preview icon for each site? Instead of a colour icon of the site as indicated on the app web site all I see is a generic monochrome iconScreenshot_20210127_150333

for which reason ever the bookmarks app seems to face severe problems right nowā€¦ in another thread it got obvious that users canā€™t see their bookmarks anymore so maybe your problem is somehow connected to that.

would you mind filing an issue on Github?

SOLVED - I found a closed issue on Github #1252 identifying the need to check the Privacy option under ā€˜Settings / Administration / Bookmarksā€™ to enable access and collection of web page information. Now preview icons work. This must be a fairly new requirement because it had previously worked some releases ago and I didnā€™t turn it off. There is no instruction in the README so I never knew about it.
