Easy to use, no hassle or problems so far.
Out of date plugin
by tristanwmartin·1 year ago
I know it is annoying that twitter (AKA ‘X’) rebranded, but that was months ago and there is still no option to natively set their new logo as an icon. This is not a limitation of font awesome either as they have the x-twitter icon, seems like an easy fix!
Edit: Looking through this review thread, looks like the last time developers updated font awesome in their plugin was over 5 years ago to 5.7.2.
Todays version is 6.6.0!
