Is there something to serve all remote fonts from a local cache?

You can block remote fonts in uBlock Origin. Websites will display your default font. https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Per-site-switches#no-remote-fonts

Then the page is messed up with mojibake because sites now encode their cutesy icons as fonts. Usually I just deal with it but sometimes the icons are needed to use the site.

Did not know that, sorry. Maybe someone else will be able to answer your question.
