Calibri isn’t strong enough in it’s convictions to be Helvetica. It can’t even offer a fight against the hard utilitarianism of Arial. It’s rounded corners and varying thickness show up terribly on anything but the highest resolution screens, where it still isn’t good, and it makes me feel the same way that CRT monitors did when I put my hand up to them. You know the feeling, that crusty, fuzzy, buzzy feeling that you swear you could taste.
My favourite font is Apple San Francisco, but Inter is the closest font I’ve found that I can actually use in my projects. Along with an option to switch to Open Dyslexic of course!

A nasty font, it can absolutely go fuck itself.
This is absolute poetry
In the hopes of more of this, what are your thoughts about Inter?
More of an AC Milan man myself, or at least I was back in their 90s heyday. I don’t really follow the Serie A that much these days 😛

Mine is Cantarell (GNOME default font) even though I use KDE Plasma.
