I looked closer at the docs and this line caught my eye:

If you're loading a font from a service like Google Fonts, make sure to put the @import at the very top of your CSS file:

I inspected the compiled CSS in the browser, and turns out the @import url line was not at the top of the compiled CSS. There were some @font-face lines before that.

Geist is of course the default font that comes with every Next.js install. I determined that to load a custom font, I could either load all of my Google fonts using next/font/google or the Tailwind way (i.e. don't mix methods). I chose the latter and the font now loads as intended.

Specifically I removed these lines to get the @import in my CSS working:
