Introducing google-webfonts-helper
Let’s be clear: hosting Google web fonts in a GDPR compliant way on your own server requires significant effort. You’ll need to download all the necessary .eot, .woff, .woff2, .ttf, and .svg files, upload them to your server, and then add the corresponding CSS snippet.
Sounds simple? It would be, if Google offered direct download links for the files and a ready-made CSS for self-hosting. Since they don’t, and to avoid relying on font generation tools like Font Squirrel, I created a service called google-webfonts-helper to streamline the process.

Developed & Maintained for the Modern Web.
Why am I spending late nights deep in the guts of 15-year-old code? Because modern web development has become a bloated, slow-motion wreck.
I’m porting legendary legacy scripts to modern standards because they were built when every kilobyte actually mattered. We're talking about platforms that weigh 10,000 times less than today's «modern» frameworks but deliver 100,000 times the speed and raw function.
The MadWay Mission:
- Zero Bloat: Stripping away the decade of digital fat.
- Modern Vitals: Dragging old-school logic into the era of modern PHP, Core Web Vitals.
- Digital Preservation: Making sure the «simpler times» of the web don't just survive—they outperform.
- Open Access: Available for anyone and not forgotten.
I’m not just fixing bugs; I'm proving that you don’t need a massive footprint to have a massive impact. Keeping the web fast, lean, and light.

I just love receiving this kind of e-mails. And I love google for it's «right thing to do»/(covering their asses). You post your nudes or whatever on the fucking internet. I repeat, INTERNET a WORLD wide web. When did people forget that anything you post on internet will spread like a fucking virus, regardless where it was posted on.
I mean simps who pay for onlywhores or whatever content, own it right? They pay'd for it, so they are allowed to spread it. Once it's spread, it's free to grab.
How the fuck google think I found this content in the first place? That's right, fucking google!
