| 01:10 | <justingrant> | (crashing the party here, hope that's OK) Feedback on the new font: Wider characters are problematic for the left pane, which is already unreadable (even with the old font) for some longer names. Example: |
| 01:17 | <justingrant> | Also, serif fonts generally deviate very little from Times Roman. most people would not really notice the difference between serif, Times New Roman, Palatino Linotype, etc. They all look kinda the same... like a printed (non-tech) book or newspaper. IBM Plex Serif has a distinctly different look-n-feel, which (sample size of 1) makes it a bit harder for me to quickly scan and read prose in the spec. |
| 01:19 | <justingrant> | That said, I think the new fonts are more readable for <code> elements and headings. My main concerns are the left pane and regular prose. |
