Related question: I'm familiar with Atkinson Hyperlegible. the Braille Institute Free Font (link at the bottom.

If accessibility-oriented fonts make a difference for you as a reader (for dyslexia, low vision, visual processing, or any other reason), I would love to know what accessible fonts you personally like best and why.

*This is question for people who rely on accessible fonts only. No replies from others, please. Thank you!

This port may take a while, and I greatly appreciate any help available. I've laid out a list of tasks to be done before merging, and if anyone wants to take something on let me know and we can work together.

If you want to help with the effort, please join #fonts:gnome.org on Matrix :) (matrix.to/#/#fonts:gnome.org)

OK, friends. I could use your boosting powers on this one AND I could use your eyes for 5–10 min if you'd like to be helpful.

I've done the launch on the updated, multi-lingual & multi-device version of my font-spacing research test site. Please have a visit to letter.fit and take a look at a sample or two.

You don't have to be in #fonts #type or #typography — this is just "look at this sample, highlight things that stick out"; the value is in wide samples & lots of variety!
