Personal activity log of lessons learned, obscure and not so obscure technical tidbits and even some philosophy rants, which are a by-product of my personal and professional comings and goings.

Hey Folks!

We’ve been playing and discussing Calibri, Aptos ( Bierstadt ), Grandview, Seaford, Tenorite and Skeena over on Tildes and I figured you folks would enjoy clicking around and seeing what the differences between them actually are.

I wrote the article, so let me know if there’s something you’d like to see as well :D

Cheers !

Aside from using it to make jokes? It’s not bad, a legible sans-serif that renders well on low resolution screens. A lot of discussions about “clean” fonts seem to squabble over minutiae while the important part of being readable seems forgotten.

I agree wholeheartedly, it’s readable, but oh so ugly and brutalistic :P
