We’re in a very strange moment for the internet. We all know it’s broken. That’s not news. But there’s something in the air—a vibe shift, a sense that things are about to change.

    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.
