We've got two versions of our logo, one for light backgrounds, and another one for dark backgrounds: https://pandas.pydata.org/about/citing.html#brand-and-logo.

Modern browsers usually support a dark mode, and when users have it activated, our favicon (our logo for light backgrounds) doesn't look really nice:

Looks like there are ways to change the favicon colors (or the favicon itself I guess) based on the light theme of the browser user. For example, see this article: https://catalin.red/svg-favicon-light-dark-theme/

It'd be nice to show the dark background logo as a favicon to web visitors using a dark theme for their browser.
