Serif fonts read terribly on displays of basically any size and dpi, I don't even use them when reading books on e-ink displays

  Serif fonts read fine on any screen with at least a pixel density of Apple's Retina displays. Subjective preferences are another matter, of course. I prefer serifs even on worse displays, because my brain decodes them better. And I will basically refuse to read sans serif in print, or rather, my brain refuses to comply anyway.

  That's your (arguably wrong) opinion. Some of the most beautiful and enjoyable fonts I have used in my 300-dpi e-book reader have serifs. - Ancizar - Bookerly - Imperial (the one used by NYTimes) - Palatino

    and yet the default font on a kindle is still a sans serif font named Amazon Ember

      I also like that one. And Calibri, which is a font that can't decide if it wants to have serifs or not. I can't have enough fonts.
