It is time to build your fonts proxy - now !

Your may ask why ..

Since Google does not even cache the fonts anymore
and it is not GDPR-compliant
also because google may track your users at least on the level of a matomo-instance.

you can do better.

With the simple nuster-nginx combination ( tested on aarch64 and x86_64 ) , one can

anonymize the IP-Adress
anonymize the User-Agent
serve custom 404 pages that are also anoymously passed for all requests through that instance.

get the nuster-cache-proxy files:
```
git clone ; cd
```
create a .env-File ( like below, change at least the domain and the letsencrypt mail address)

echo '
VIRTUAL_PORT=80
VIRTUAL_PROTO=http

VIRTUAL_HOST=fonts.your-domain.lan
LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=no@body.lan
LETSENCRYPT_HOST=fonts.your-domain.lan
CACHED_PATH=/
CACHED_HOST=fonts.gstatic.com
COMPOSE_POJECT_NAME=myservicename
RETURN_UNAUTH=false
ACCESS_LOG=false

##optional
REDIRECT_FAVICON=false
CACHEMB=512
CACHETIME=90d
TIMEOUT=15s
HIDECLIENT=true
EXPIREHEADER=7d
LOCALPORT=65080
NGINX_NETWORK=nginx-proxy
CUSTOMFOUROFOUR=https://statuspages.gitlab.io/404
CUSTOMENDPOINTS=/css:fonts.googleapis.com
REPLACESTRING=fonts.gstatic.com:fonts.your-domain.lan,fonts.googleapis.com:fonts.fonts.your-domain.lan
' > .env

create the named network ( docker network create nginx-proxy ) or adjust .env
run docker-compose up -d
replace the domains fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com to your domain ( in example here fonts.your-domain.lan ) in all your webpages and themes, example result:

        <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
        <link href='//fonts.mydomain.lan/css?family=Open+Sans:300,400,600,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
        <!-- Global CSS -->

Use the font-proxy in your Firefox or Chrome with any domain when sufing the web

install a header/request changing Plugin ( in ths Example GooReplacer )

Chrome	Firefox

( if the gooreplacer does not load /assets/at_alicdn_com/t/font_148784_v4ggb6wrjmkotj4i.woff from the settings page , you may rewrite it as well )
setup a replacement like below (there is a trailing slash at the target url )
