      1. What URL's should I block?
      2. Will it speed up browsing?
      3. Is there a way to block it in a way that it will still load if I downloaded the font on my computer?
      4. Bonus: Is there a way to spoof fonts in Linux so, for instance, Tinos is shown if a webpage in V or document in LibreOffice calls for times new roman?

        Hi,

        Check the list at https://filterlists.com -.

        2021-04-20_001033.png

        About to load them locally, if I remember, just if it's specified on the site's code and matches the installed. Otherwise online or generic.

          @code3 In uBO for all sites:

          If a site breaks because of icon fonts :

          Is there a way to block it in a way that it will still load if I downloaded the font on my computer?

          Define a font you would like to use in every site (I use Lato) and make a general CSS style to define it.

          With this selectors you embrace 95% of text in all sites:

          p,
          * > p,
          * p,
          *.p,
          [class *= "text"] > p,
          [class *= "text"] p,
          [class *= "text"].p,
          p > strong,
          p.strong,
          p > span,
          p.span,
          p span,
          
          section,
          article,
          li span,
          li *,
          
          .entry-content *,
          .post-entry *,
          .article-body *
          
          {font-family: Lato !important;}

            @Zalex108 Thanks, exactly what I wanted, it seems to me that it has parameters to unblock the google CSS necessary for the fonts to load if they are installed on my machine.

            @barbudo2005 Thanks, but I am using the inbuilt adblocker, it is fast! For the custom fonts, it may be easier to define those in Vivaldi. I have set Lato as my sans-serif font.

              @code3 If you define the Default Fonts in the settings it will not change the fonts in the site:

              Look this thread by @LonM :
              https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/40970/force-default-fonts

              it seems to me that it has parameters to unblock the google CSS necessary for the fonts to load if they are installed on my machine.

              I doubt that.

                It will if there isn’t a more similar font.

                Why? Did you look at it?

                    I use uBO and block the remote fonts.

                    The extension LocalCDN in Chromium not support "Font Awesome", so I emulate it by this CSS Stylus:

                    i,
                    .icon,
                    ::before,
                    ::after,
                    [class *= "fa"]
                    
                    {font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free", 
                    "Font Awesome 5 Free Solid", "Font Awesome 5 Free Regular", "Font Awesome 5 Brands Regular" !important;}
                    

                    Download the fonts Version 5 Free from: https://fontawesome.com/download

                    You can prove it in https://wpd.app/
