Self host Google Fonts #1

Closed clone1018 closed 4 years ago

clone1018 commented 4 years ago

Right now, we're using Google's CDN for serving fonts to our users. This also means we are sending them data about our traffic, usage and users.

I do not want to utilize Google as a CDN provider. So we need to self-host these fonts on our platform.

Might also want to look at some FOSS fonts: https://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/

Ideally, you actually don't want google fonts because they create some jarring artifacts: either text changes or is invisible until loaded. System fonts on the other hand are perfect for site speed.
