I agree with the general sentiment of the page, with one exception: It’s better to use WOFF webfonts for the fonts on the page instead of using what were “Web safe” fonts back in 2005 or so.<p>With the rise of Android phones which, by and large, do not have licenses for the old 1990s “Microsoft Core Fonts” (Verdana&#x2F;Gerogia&#x2F;Arial&#x2F;etc.), doing something like “font-family: Georgia, Serif” no longer guarantees a consistent look from platform to platform.  What I use is a heavily optimized and subsetted web font stack which is placed in a single 114KB CSS file separate from the web page; I use inline fonts instead of linking to individual font files to remove the number of pages needed to load to render my page.  I use WOFF for maximum browser compatibility, although this is becoming a non-issue with Microsoft seriously sunsetting IE11.<p>This way, my webpage will look the same in any web browser with WOFF support, regardless of what fonts a given phone or OS use for “Georgia” or what not. In addition, with the exceptions of Arial and Georgia, the Microsoft Core fonts are quite dated looking; using Verdana here in 2021 gives the page a “made in the first 2000s decade” look to it.<p>I also, for browsers without WOFF, have a fairly long font stack, so that the web page looks reasonable even without a webfont.
