sometimes font awesome shows weird characters when you hit the page. Refreshing the page is one fix but sometimes it is not. You need to hard refresh to fix it.
I checked from developer console and I didn't see any errors. When I check the page css and fonts are loading correctly.

I'm using font awesome like this:

<i class="fa fa-hourglass-start fa-2x"></i>
or
<i class="fa fa-eye fa-2x"></i>
or
<i class="fa fa-ban"></i>

Here is how it looks like. enter image description here

  • Could you include the code you are using to add the icon in your question? – sol Jul 21 '17 at 08:22

  • Yea, I tried those before and yesterday too, but no change :( It's really weird. – Kadir Jul 22 '17 at 10:58
  • Can you show the lines within `` that deal with FontAwesome? Also: does this happen on a specific browser (version?) or across Chrome,FF,Edge etc.? – MBaas Mar 16 '23 at 13:07
