 * Hi, in FireFox console there is a warning/alert message. Is this something WPO
   can/should correct? Or have something to do with a setting? Will this slow down
   the page loading.

   preloaded with link preload was not used within a few seconds. Make sure all 
   attributes of the preload tag are set correctly.

 * Under Minify>>Fonts, can you try checking one of the option to synchronously 
   load the (which one will depend on wether you are using Font Awesome or Google
   Fonts)

 * Hi [@vupdraft](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vupdraft/). I enabled Asynchronously
   load CSS files from Google Fonts. But the alert still appears.

 * Did that, but the alert persisted. One other observation: it is the same google
   font in all the pages I tested. Not sure if this helps you to nail down the cause.

 * I think you might need to add a **crossorigin** attribute when fetching fonts,
   as they are fetched using anonymous mode
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <link rel="preload" href="{{ '/dev1/wp-content/astra-local-fonts/noto-serif-tc/XLY9IZb5bJNDGYxLBibeHZ0BvoMtbXwuVcgUbQ3zF6M3eg1qzxeg6QwzxcSPzLZfXbm0Gs_7uos.119.woff2' | prepend: site.baseurl | prepend: site.url }}"
   
       as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin/>
       ```
