@Sarenor So I tried using the NPM package, but was running into deployment issue with it trying to authenticate and failing. Very odd stuff, never see anything like that. So I said screw it and switched to the self hosted solution here:

https://fontawesome.com/docs/web/setup/host-yourself/webfonts

It's nearly the same process as our recent font update, with the static files stored in the /static directory. This appears to work, at least as a stop gap solution. A couple notable issues though - I can't seem to import the files via the root layout, which means they may or may not be included as part of Vite's bundling process.

Additionally, this is a bit old school, meaning if things update we'll have to update the local assets manually. Thankfully we don't do this very often. But to keep things simple I've installed ONLY what we're using:

1. fontawesome.min.css - the core stylesheet which is required
2. brands.min.css - various brand icons, such as the social link icons in the page footer
3. solid.min.css - the default solid version of icons

All three are using the minified files which should provide a minor improvement. But for now I think this is the best we can get.

Feel free to poke holes in this, otherwise we'll move forward and merge this soon.

At least as far as GDPR is concerned that seems fine.
Otherwise I'll need to poke holes in this tomorrow, finally got time for games today :D

Haven't checked every page on the site, but homepage and a couple of components I've scrolled over look good 👍
