Not a perfect solution

Hello Gigachad,

Great job on the design...!!!

You can use the icons from font-awesome. All you have to do is include the font-awesome cdn to access the icons and then you can customise them however you like.

All the best for the next challenge. 😊

👾Hello Giga, congratulations for your new amazing solution!👾

🍚I liked a lots the work you've done here, specially because you've add a border-radius that makes the instagram icon seems a pokeball! ❤️Just kidding bro we'll solve it together! 🐱 (this is pikachu)

💘Your solution is amazing anyway, is full responsive and all the elements are matching the reference, there's only a small issue with the background-image for mobile after 800px, this is due background-size: auto; replace it with background-size: contain;

About the icons, I had the same issue you had, I choose to fix my solution downloading my own icons like you did and covert them into path to apply the proper hover effect.

💩Is really sh1t that you cannot fill them with the color you want without having to select each svg path, this behavior that change the color only for the borders is a sh1t. But we'll fix it!💩

But you're like me so we can break the rules, you can fix this giving the hover import background-image with the icon colored with other color, use filter to change its color, or convert it into a single svg path to manage all paths in a single line of code.

🤯Here's the tutorial I've used to do the conversion:🤯

👾 Here's my solution if you want to see the paths already converted and the hover applied:
