Even if a font claims to be “hyper” legible or “for dyslexic people”, actual user testing does not show advantages over other fonts. It’s not generalizable.

See Gareth Ford William’s summary, and his talk “Don’t Believe The Type!”.

@yatil I used Atkinson Hyperlegible for a while. My research said Roboto was a good font for legibility and I preferred its aesthetic to Atkinson. Was that a good a move?

@gdp Nothing wrong with it. The differences are really not that huge between fonts.
