TL;DR: for some reason since Window logo did disappear from simpleicons.org database, the easiest and the simplest way seems to just replace it with the local version for the table of supported devices.

Currently vs Patched.

It's strange but you can't find any windows nor microsoft related icons through simpleicons anymore. I did try to utilize svg version from fontawesome, like this:

<svg width=16 viewBox="0 0 448 512"><path fill="#5791ac" d="M0 93.7l183.6-25.3v177.4H0V93.7zm0 324.6l183.6 25.3V268.4H0v149.9zm203.8 28L448 480V268.4H203.8v177.9zm0-380.6v180.1H448V32L203.8 65.7z"/></svg>

But this doesn't work with GitHub'based Markdown flavor (for security reasons to avoid malicious payloads and/or content from 3rd party sources which may be compromised, as far as I could understand).

So the straightforward option is to:

  • tune the color for svg version of fontawesome;
  • download svg;
  • convert it to png;
  • upload to img/;
  • use it as local img src=img/....

Hence, here is the suggestion in this patch.

For the record, due to such kind of exact nuances I'm not a big fan myself of turning markdown files into html much (because the whole idea of markdown is not to be html much). But since there is a nicely done table already, this is a proposal fix for the broken window logo (sweet irony, punch intended :)

Let me know what you think.

I agree the simplest is to just have it in the repo in this case.
