Typography is the pain of my existence.

I can do a mean job at UI, but man.. I can't even pick fonts that don't suck.

Let people chose their own fonts πŸ˜›

Not sure if it aligns with your vision though, but amethyst does kind of seem like the app that would let me do that.

Tha looks like pollerama lol πŸ˜‚

I think this is my favorite font of all time.

I hear everybody loves Comic Sans.

You may have meant this as a joke, but I'm a comic sans maxi, and I'm completely on board comic sans-ing all of nostr!

Just cause

"Hello? Font police?"

It's okay. Really. I am understanding of other people's fetishes and perversions. Personally I've been into monorype fonts for a while now and that is also unusual for the most (but less than Comic Sans MS)

Ask AI to pick for you or give you a curated list based on it’s use purpose

What font do you use in your coding editor?

AI can help tremendously with this

Amethyst has an excellent font

When in need of a basic font, I often go with Satoshi as an alternative to arial/helvetica

Thanks, but the "joke" was really about how bad our markdown rendering looks with the 6 header sizes and so on.. :)

I need to figure out how to make these generic markdown usages more readable.

That went right over my head πŸ˜…

Well...you got some more font options as you figure out the markdown issue ✨
