It just clicked.... Google Fonts is used across the web. So yet another way Google can identify your IP, user agent, and site usage etc. I'm definitely beaten to this, looks like a German court found this violated GDPR. Well. I've moved to self-hosting my fonts now, but [whilst important to note Google's font policy says they don't track you with this,] not too sure what to do on other web travails. #privacy #gdpr #googlefonts #selfhosting #web

Spotted in my Calishat Snaps: Sweetfont. From the page description: “Sweetfont helps you find the perfect Google Font by exploring axes like playfulness, elegance, and warmth on interactive XY pads.”

I recently made the cut-out letter design using #GoogleFonts. Nevertheless, it turns out that certain #typefaces are of low quality due to their poor vectorization. view the picture that is attached.

Started the first non-work day of the year with some yak-shaving on my website: learnt how to use local web fonts, picked one (Literata), changed some colors and removed the Google Programmable Search Engine and Google Analytics.

Webpages are now pure HTML/CSS (zero JS) and literally a few hundred bytes in size total.
