Every built-in image has been meticulously optimized, with most displayed in SVG format.

Some icons are adaptive to the Base color scheme and will automatically adjust their highlight color accordingly.

From Obsidian Community (Recommended)

Open the Community Plugins tab in the settings and search for "Iconify" (or click here).

Setting

By default, both URL Scheme and WebSite icon are enabled. You could disable any of them via the Style Setting plugin.

There are two different Obsidian icons to help users better distinguish between Obsidian web links and note links.

Obsidian Note Link icon is disabled by default. You can enable either internal link, external link, or both, or disable them entirely — it all depends on your workflow.
