Worth noting that Push has been removed from Chrome, which likely means it’ll eventually go away everywhere else it’s implemented.

> You can also limit how many variants you use. On my website, I dont have bold + italic text, to avoid loading a font. My secondary font is only loaded in one variant.

This is definitely good advice. On my site, I only load one font, used only for headings. Body text certainly can benefit from custom fonts too. But IMO if your headings stand out and the rest of your design is strong with good line spacing, it doesn’t hurt to try out common web fonts or a system font stack for the body text.

> I also realised small performance gains by inlining my CSS (although HTTP2 Push negates the benefits). This only makes sense for smaller stylesheets though.

This seems to generally be the trend, but when I built my site I decided to go the opposite direction and extract all of my styles into a single external CSS file for caching benefits. This turned out to have a negative impact on perceived load time—particularly blocking fonts, but also just some TTFP generally—so I manually inlined what felt like the most critical styles, which helped a lot. First load feels pretty much the same as inline on my connection, which isn’t especially fast, and subsequent loads get it cached.

I could probably improve it further with some page-specific splitting/inlining, but haven’t felt the need to prioritize that yet.
