Talk: Web Typography (48mins)
I can recommend this 2018 talk on tips for Web typography:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbIZX6tE9JY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbIZX6tE9JY
The tips are:
1. Don't trust computers
2. Use the default font size for paragraph text
3. Adjust type size according to reading distance
4. Adjust the font size if the typeface requires it
5. Set tables to be read
6. Resize display text as you would an image
7. Reduce your playload
8. Optimise page render timing
There is a lot more detail than suggested by the headings above. I found the talk informative and helpful.

Course: Typography for Developers (2hrs)
This is not a talk, but a course. Treehouse (an online course provider) just recently posted a typography course on the freecodecamp YouTube channel. I've not watched the course so can't comment on whether it's good or not but it's aimed at developers:
