    Nginx 1.31.x
    MariaDB 10.x/11.4+/12.3+
    1.0 = 100% sure the link you want to preconnect will be called/requested. 0.5 = 50% sure etc etc

    But rel preconnect isn't possible to configure as nginx header right?

    Or this will just work fine:
    Code:
    add_header Link <https://fonts.gstatic.com>; rel=preconnect; probability=1.0;

    Yeah preconnect like preload hints can be added via Nginx add_header too. Just you probably don't need probability=1.0 if you 100% know the request will be made every page load and need to wrap the Link values in single or double quotes i.e.
    Code (Text):
    add_header Link '<https://fonts.gstatic.com>; rel=preconnect; crossorigin; probability=1.0;';

    or
    Code (Text):
    add_header Link '<https://fonts.gstatic.com>; rel=preconnect; crossorigin;';
