Thankfully we're not facing an increasing use of mobile devices on high latency networks. Oh.
Platform and browser defaults have come so far that nowadays my preferred font stack is this:
font-family: sans-serif;
- ceejayoz 15y agoMost sites aren't going to be demoing a bunch of different fonts like this. They'd likely pick one for headers and one for copy.
- iamhenry 15y agoI agree. On that same note, I would stay away from using a web font in your body. It'll render slow on smart phones if you have a fairly lenthy article. Not only that, it may not render as crisp, therefore causing a bad reading experience.
- voyou 15y ago"I would stay away from using a web font in your body. It'll render slow on smart phones" Why is that? I thought the system fonts would be TrueType or OpenType, and so use the same renderer as web fonts. Not that I know much about the technical details of fonts; is it possible to optimize a font for ease of rendering?
