Can I cache files if I don't have access to hosting settings?

Question

caching

Good day to all!

I need to optimize the site. Google PageSpeed ​​says to cache files (fonts and scripts). I specified the necessary parameters in .htaccess, and Google PageSpeed ​​does not seem to see anything. For some reason .htaccess doesn't work. I heard that this file is only for Apache, I don't know if the hosting has it or not, and if caching is allowed on the hosting.
Here is this site: https://www.umark.it/

Are there other ways to cache files in the browser so that Google PageSpeed ​​can see it?

.htaccess

Answer 1

Static files can be distributed not through Apache, but through nginx, and for the latter there is a separate config (not htaccess), to the settings of which you cannot have access. It is worth writing a ticket to the hoster.
Alternatively, you can put the site behind cloudflare and then some of the static will be cached by it, and the caching time can be forced.
