Problem

I tried allowing desktop app to use 127.0.0.1 (through opensnitch), but it didn't open up. It waits for fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. If I don't allow the connections, I can't develop the app. This happens with and without offline mode.

Probably a webkitgtk issue, but I don't know how to pinpoint this.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Create desktop app.
• Fetch all dependencies and run dx serve --frozen.
• If connection to those websites is blocked (probably also happens without Internet connection), the app doesn't start.

Expected behavior

No external connections are made. I also don't expect them in online mode.

Screenshots

Environment:

• Dioxus version: v0.7.0-alpha.2
• Rust version: 1.85.1
• OS info: NixOS 25.05
• App platform: desktop

Questionnaire

I'm interested in fixing this myself but don't know where to start.
