Ome is slightly shorter for me :/
That’s three fonts.
In a trench coat?
Nerd!
But yeah, true.
I was talking about my tech hobbies (home server, mechanical keyboards, etc) with a workplace colleague and she asked me “so what’s your favourite font”. Had to say “I don’t know, but I absolutely love that I’ve just been asked that question”.
Atkinson Hyperlegible! I don’t have a vision/reading impairment, but it’s faster and easier to read when taking notes or proofreading and doesn’t look ugly like a lot of dyslexia fonts.
I was just about to recommend it as well
I own my own font, it’s pretty sweet but it’s definitely not a daily driver.
I saw someone once scanned their own handwriting to make their own font. I always thought that was a really neat idea but never got around to copying them
That’s an option, there are/were a variety of tools available where you can fill out a form either printed, Photoshop document, or Illustrator document. I don’t remember what I used but I was able to open the format sheet with GIMP.
Consolas.
I’m a big fan of monospace and I really like how none of the characters can be confused with any others.
It’s a decent looking font as well as very functional.
ooo i love monospaces. my current favorite font is Mom’s Typewriter
I’m a big fan of this myself:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inconsolata
Inconsolata is an open source version of Consola. I guess I’m using that when I’m not using a microsoft product.
Other ones that are neat with that are Atkynson Hyperlegible (base, mono and Next), Fira Code and Iosevka.
I use Serious Shanns a monospaced Comic Sans
Fira code is okay but cascadia tickles my brain better. I swapped to jetbrain and it’s comfy.
I’d have to answer the same too. Not because I don’t have a favorite font, but because “hack” is too edgy of a font-name.
Gohu font my beloved.
I kinda like Futura in print. Enjoyed some books from maybe the 1940s that used it.

Me: any font is fine, as long as it’s readable
Now I understand why I don’t have friends on the fediverse :D
Are you saying you’re fine with… Papyrus??
Never heard of it, let me check… yes, I’m fine lol
It doesn’t affect mine, but it looks like it can affect some people’s readability, and I wouldn’t be fine with that
Same here, as long as they don’t display it in light gray on a slightly lighter background.
any
dreamfont will do
This one’s got HUGE serifs.
I’m a kerning man, myself.
I didn’t know the Font Club meeting was today! Where’s Brick??
The first rule of Font Club is you do not talk about Font Club.
I agree with that guy, I don’t like serif fonts.
They always look old-fashioned and harder to read to me, even when they’re not, LOL.
Yeaaa
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark.
I used to like going through interesting fonts, but now I want reasonable Unicode support in a font, and given the immense effort to cover Unicode, there aren’t many out there. Yeah, falling back to other fonts for missing glyphs helps, but it’s not as good.
Probably different if you’re a designer doing one image where you know all the text that you’re gonna be using.
Mmm accessibility fonts are so hot rn
You know, I’m something of a Bank Gothic guy myself.
No idea why.
Most definitely not because I grew up on Stargate.
Marathon (Halo’s predecessor) used it too. Lot of sci-fi stuff.
Also successor. At least in bungie terms.
