The way they talk about it makes it sound like they invented the written word, but that notwithstanding the fonts actually look really nice in my opinion.

      Honestly I could see radon for comments only. It makes it clear that it’s a comment by the font alone.

      Yeah, I looked at the first couple of fonts, then read all that stuff about readability this, state of the art that, expressive palettes la-di-da and I thought “ok maybe they have an idea here”.

      Then I looked at the rest of the examples and ran into that… thing. Like, the fucker’s so aggressively irritating to read that you could use that font to hide eg. backdoors in code, and reviewers would instinctively skip over those parts just to avoid the pain.

      I can’t believe how no one seems to have mentioned how beautifully made this website is though. Absolute pleasure to scroll through on mobile.
