Recently upgraded to a Mac Mini M4 10C CPU, 10 core GPU, 32GB unified memory, 512GB SSD. It's connected to a Dell U4323QE monitor via a Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable. Internet connection around 780 MBPS upload (39 MBPS download). Sometimes when I open Safari the icons in the favorites bar are replaced by globes. Is there a setting that I can change to get the icons to appear? Screen shots included. Thanks.

I believe that Safari automatically clears out website data if you don't visit the site for 7 days (unlike other browsers). So, they also might be going away on their own if you haven't recently visited those sites.
