System defaults can be ugly sometimes. Sometimes user might set their default font to something like Comic Sans or Papyrus accidentally or not and have no clue how to fix it. Users are really, really dumb. I wouldn't like my designed website to look like trash because the user wants to bring their ugly font, I want it to be consistently classic book sans-serif. Any time of the day I'd choose Segoe UI over Arial or god forbid Verdana. Hence that line and https://systemfontstack.com/ https://systemfontstack.com/ exist. The latter one is, by the way, always in my toolkit.
My website, my design. my fonts. Period.
- Nullabillity 3y agoSome people, believe it or not, actually like Comic Sans. Their device, their preferences, their fonts. Period.
- JimDabell 3y agoIt’s not uncommon for people with dyslexia to use Comic Sans because some of them find it easier to read. However pretty much every website specifies which font to use. If you want your own font, you aren’t going to get it by complaining about one particular CSS framework. There’s a way of overriding fonts in every browser; find that and you’ll get what you want.
