IMO: don’t force your users to load fonts. On slow connections they’ll read part of the page until suddenly the font loads and everything gets rearranged. Worse

IMO: don’t force your users to load fonts. On slow connections they’ll read part of the page until suddenly the font loads and everything gets rearranged. Worse is what google does: hide the text with JavaScript until the font loads so the whole page takes eons before you can read it. If there’s a font with identical metrics that most people have installed then fine, otherwise don’t be a dick to people on bad connections.
