Hot take: If you're designing for the web to the pixel, you're doing it wrong. Every style is a suggestion to the browser, and any declaration can be changes or ignored by it, either because of bugs, updates, add-ons or user preferences. If your design breaks because of small font metrics changes, it was already broken to a lot of users out there.
Always self-host your fonts, never trust and relay on third parties, avoid your users being tracked by those third parties, and that includes... never let third parties like Google Fonts auto-update your fonts and broke your site. Own your content.
I have yet to see a website, where i decline cookies, change its font because of that. And i refuse to believe they all selfhost their fonts. So arent tons of sites breaking GDPR simply because of that?
Well, they don’t load/store the webfonts via cookies. When a website uses Google fonts to host the fonts, Google could theoretically track your browsing behavior across several websites.
But i know that you need to get the users consent to use remote google fonts. So if they decline my cookie popup, and it does not disable the fonts, then the consent or lack thereoff did nothing? Because Google can still track it then
your shirt is infuriating and i’m here to take the engagement bait. I don’t mind the typo as much as the keming lol. them being a joke together.. that’s just rubbing salt in the wound

100% this.
Totally agree, your design should be flexible enough to deal with these issues. However, in some cases it might cause individual problems.

100%, Brandon!
I always self-host fonts for my website.
The ending was so cute 😆
Oh yes! ❤️ Easter egg for everyone who watches till the end 😉!
I wondered about that yesterday, I set text to inter and I didn't look right. Thanks for the info
Happy you found the reason for it in my video 😉.
hey, I don’t know if it’s intentional, but your shirt says Typo graHper, I think it supposed to be Typo graPher
i reckon its intentioanl
Its not intentional
I’ll let you decide 😉.
They did it with Roboto and they’ll do it again. Download your most important fonts, and better, DON’T DESIGN IN A WAY THAT DEPENDS ON THE FONT USED!
… and with Montserrat 😅! Wise words, wise words!

I think nextjs by default uses Inter and i suspect a lot of products by default using it with next are in trouble now
I'm always using fontsource's packages with a pinned version to prevent this.
That’s a smart approach! And makes you more independent 😉
The moment they stopped letting me pick specific sizes is when it died
How do you mean that with specific sizes?
