I am looking for inspiration on a textual blog design especially concerning the readability. Do you have a favourite blog that you like especially for the ease of reading?

@tkoola I’ve seen several but can’t remember what now. @pimoore ’s uses device centric fonts, so that’s pretty readable. I’ll let you know if I find more.

@odd @tkoola Thanks man, I appreciate the mention! 🙏 Right now I have the fonts set to download but I might be switching to self-host them to eliminate the need for the third-party connection. I also tested my site in Firefox Focus and they didn’t work, likely getting blocked by that browser.

If you’re looking for some sites with other inspirational typography, here are a couple I came across recently that really blew me away:

I can also highly mention looking up Edward Tufte as he was a huge inspiration in the world of typography and writing design.

@pimoore Tufte rocks … the ‘structured visual thinking’ godfather.

@JohnPhilpin Absolutely, I’ve read some people that feel his design was a bit weird but not to my eyes.
