[Support request] google pagespeed insights and generatepress.ttf

[Patrick]

Hello Tom,
Google pagespeed is telling me to better compress fonts/generatepress.ttf 1,3 KB (45 %) can be saved. What can I do about that?

[Tom]

I did some looking into this, and I’m not sure it’s possible on the server side of things. However, that file is super small, so I really wouldn’t worry about it.

Hello Tom,
I really do not worry about the filesize but sadly google is the biggest player and when ever google thinks something is not perfect on your website it affects your ranking and the quality-factor of your keywords which can make your adwords more expensive.

Other than that I don’t care about a few kB

This is a really good article about Google Page Speed, and why it’s super flawed: https://wp-rocket.me/blog/the-truth-about-google-pagespeed-insights/

Anything new about it? i get the same advice from Google. I dont like advices from Google. I want to pass all their tests. Thanks in advance

Nothings changed much – it’s a tiny file, so the saving they’re saying could happen are also tiny.

Any sort of compressing would need to happen on the server side of things.
