Off-topic, but that Vollkron font definitely styles 1s very weirdly. I thought it said I.I.I.I instead of 1.1.1.1 until I copied the text and pasted it somewher

- another-cuppa 8y agoIt does say I.I.I.I. Awful font.
- callahad 8y agoThat's a common, traditional form for non-lining numerals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_figures https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_figures) Turns out, Al Gore doesn't like it, either: https://www.typotheque.com/blog/gores_choice https://www.typotheque.com/blog/gores_choice
- paavoova 8y agouBlock Origin allows you to block remote fonts and use system fonts instead. You can selectively enable them on a per-domain basis, and, for cases like this, have them blocked them by default. With remote fonts enabled on https://www.troyhunt.com/mmm-pi-hole/ https://www.troyhunt.com/mmm-pi-hole/ 24 requests 3.12 MB / 3.06 MB transferred And with remote fonts blocked: 20 requests 2.96 MB / 2.90 MB transferred It's not just ads you have to worry about.
