Substack needs to fix their serif font (Spectral). It is the worst offender. Everytime I see a substack post, it is with this typeface with extremely loose fitting. Substack has one and only one job - to present text to their audience and it is unbelievable to me that they messed up it. They need to hire a typographer to advise or just use Source Serif Pro for free. Spectral typeface needs to be nuked from the planet.
