WordPress loads the Dashicons icon font on every frontend page by default, even though it is only needed for the admin toolbar and backend UI. For the majority of visitors (non-logged-in users), Dashicons adds an unnecessary HTTP request and approximately 28 KB of CSS. This plugin dequeues and deregisters dashicons on the frontend, with an option to also remove it for logged-in users and to dequeue additional stylesheet handles in the same pass.
