- Levitating 9mo agoOh thats great. I also use the wallpaper on https://hplovecraft.com/ https://hplovecraft.com/ as my actual wallpaper.
- imiric 9mo agoThese are great, but the effect breaks down with digital fonts since every glyph instance is the same. There would have to be slight variations of each, and other imperfections caused by a typewriter or printing process. I'm not sure I like the effect of the font in the article. The subtle vertical position differences and inconsistent kerning are distracting. Typewriters and physical printing are not sloppy in that sense.
- dandellion 9mo agoI've seen "handwritten" fonts in the past that used ligatures to have three or four variations of each letter, which makes it a lot less obvious.
