Font does not work in Firefox about simple-icons-font HOT 3 CLOSED

Are you viewing the test page as a local file on your PC?

I guess you are having this "problem". Your Firefox isn't allowed to load local font files without explicit permission like settings or command line flags (at least that's what you can do with Chrome).

Okay, I will try that as soon as possible and report back here.

If this is indeed the case we should consider making it easy for contributors to do run such a server locally (perhaps using anywhere) so they can easily test it in Firefox (and Chrome if they changed the setting) if they so choose. Making their life's easier and preventing anyone from reporting this "bug" in the future.

I made this anyway while I was trying to see if the suggestion fixed the bug, so I opened #23
