Hey mate, glad you got something out of my post! βΊοΈ
The main difference is that by using Fontsource, you are effectively treating your self-hosted fonts as package dependencies that can be version locked and updated as needed.
It also saves you from having to manage the font files themselves, and from having to maintain a directory structure for them.
For example: if you need an extra subset (weight 500 italic) then itβs just one import line away, as opposed to downloading the new subset, converting it with Transfonter, adding the converted files to your repo and then importing the font for use.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
