This is a double-struck #PixelArt #font I made a while ago; I call it Stripy. I was surprised to find that I added it to an online gallery (http://www.pentacom.jp/pentacom/bitfontmaker2/gallery/?id=2711), so if you like it, go ahead and play around with it!
Thanks for checking out my #MastoArt. I'm trying to motivate myself to get back to work on my game, but motivation is hard. I hope you folks are brimming with creativity and energy today!

The font on this date cartouche is unlike any other font I've seen on a Glasgow tenement and is simply beautiful. It's on Carrington Street in the Woodlands area of the city.

I need fonts. My website is using standard fonts, but I'd like something with just a bit more life to it. Where do you find fonts?

(Accessible fonts, important criteria!)

I love the font and the layout on this date plate from one of the lodges at the entrance to the Glasgow. Botanic Gardens on Great Western Road. The lodges were designed by A.B. McDonald and were built in 1894. The complimentary curves on the D and the 4 are particularly satisfying.

I kinda want to learn some typography. What are good resources to check out for that?

I usually just slap "Source Code Pro" and "Crimson Text" into everything that I do, but I think my stuff would feel more "polished" if I had a personal typeface (or multiple different ones), that I can use instead.

Microsoft is rolling out the new default font in its Office 365 suite, ditching Calibri in favor of Aptos, which was created by Steve Matteson. "He wanted Aptos to have the universal appeal of the late NPR newscaster Carl Kasell and the astute tone of The Late Show host Stephen Colbert," the Microsoft Design team wrote in a Medium post last year. Here's more from Popular Science.

My phone just got upgraded to #Android13 and #Tusky is looking a wee bit different. The font is looking pretty good. 😃👍

Oh wow 😲 Me thinks I should have that hyperlegible on my computer. 🤔 Might make my work life just a bit better. 😄

Any way I can use them as the default font on web-based services like Google Sheets or Docs? I don't mean the text in the documents... I mean, can I also replace the font in the menus?

When I first saw the photos of a recently opened gym on Google Maps, I had a feeling that its owner must be a zh-hans native speaker, for the font they used in their interior design resembles so much like a zh-hans brush script font.

Turns out I’m right, both the font and the owner.

    «A Guide to Understanding What Makes a #Typeface Accessible»
    – by @GarethFW

    I know that the #design and #webdev of any #homepage should also take #a11y into account (see toot above), but as far as the choice of #font is concerned, I don't know very much yet.

    let's start the year with something simple: WINDS is a tiny, legible, extra spaced pixel font~✨

    (I've been making fonts for 9 years: with your support I'll try to get to 10. thanks)

    In case you're into typography, I wrote a long-ish blog post about which typefaces I like and that I use more than others.

    I also talked about the path I took when upgrading from default typefaces to my current favourites.

    May we all find a bunch of typefaces that bring us joy.

    today i finished two new fonts for the final narrative bits in the open world! they are perfect grungy crunchy pixel fonts.
    yes, i guess i am making my own fonts for this game now. 100% committed to this bit.
    (each character in the game will have their own font reflecting their personality)

    also, i totally forgot that FontForge is a thing
    https://fontforge.org/en-US/
    it's free, open source, and wonderfully difficult to use (but hey, how can you complain when you can make your own fonts!)
