In current version fonts are not loaded by http, when page are loaded by https.

Just a note. If you host fonts locally on your site and your content is served over CDN you'll typically get a performance boost and help prevent a SPOF.

When you rely on a third party service it really depends on how well that third party performs. And because many browsers won't show content until fonts load your content will not be visible until that third party responds.

I know, I know. It's served from Google, so it should always be fine, right?

Wow that's crazy. I had no idea Google Fonts itself could be slow. They're OK with other people downloading and locally serving their fonts, right?

Google fonts don't load at all in some countries. Take control of your content.
