The font on the landing page is...unconventional. What was the motivation for choosing it?
Side note: I'm not sure why, but a font like this makes me trust a site less, even though I know it's just a line of CSS. Can someone explain why?
- antcas 5y agoI liked it and felt it fit the vibe of scrappy founders making it work. I still like it. re trust-worthiness in design. Design is always communicating something. Sometimes it's "I'm a bank you should give me your money" and other times it's "This person/company isn't very good at building website". re trusting me in particular. I've been running the community behind this challenge, Indie Worldwide, for a couple years now and haven't f'd up too bad yet.
- ipaddr 5y agoThe font looks fun and not serious which lowers trust level. The depth of the lines are narrow and give the appearance of a drip. Reminds me of a partial halloween font.
- jamespetercook 5y agoIt’s like a classic old style type but if the press was low on ink. It weirdly gives me a very honest vibe as it reminds me of cheaply printed books.
