Answer 1

I think you are missing gzip_vary on; , this is what enables gzip compression for listed gzip_types

gzip on;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_http_version 1.1;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript application/javascript;
