A while ago I routed Google Fonts to ::/0.0.0.0 in my /etc/hosts file. It makes pages load a little faster, and shows me which websites thought to provide a sensible fallback and which did not.
- jackewiehose 7y agoSome time ago I disabled all webfonts (ublock or umatrix) because I really don't care about stupid individual fonts and I thought I could save some bytes. Unfortunately that broke a lot of video-players (like netflix) because they use font-symbols for play/pause buttons etc.
- TazeTSchnitzel 7y agoMm, to me that feels like an abuse of fonts — it's inaccessible at least. It makes me sad that they don't bother using the Unicode codepoints corresponding to those symbols if they exist.
