It’s the interconnected world tax.
Also fonts, google analytics, stylesheets, telemetry etc..
Hmm I wish there was a setting to disable ever downloading or using any custom font. I don't give a fuck what any website author wants their font to look like enough to want to use any that I don't already have.
I think ublock origin can block cosmetic styling. I'm not on my pc right now to check though. Also not sure if that includes fonts.
Oh nice, I thought an add-on might help with that but haven't gotten to digging in to that. Even better if it's one I already use. Thanks for the lead!
Edit: Yeah, it took all of 5 seconds to find the setting to block remote fonts in ublock origin mobile.
