Meh, not my type

You might enjoy Futura, the ITC Avant Garde Gothic family, or Century Gothic...

FWIW, these are "old style" numerals, and there are also versions of Fira Sans with "tabular" numerals that are all the same height (e.g., in LaTeX, you can pick either one).

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

Sure, but we use Papyrus, not Comic Sans.

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

Grotesque.

[therealkuni@lemmy.world]

I like Ubuntu Mono but I’ll admit it’s a bit flashy for a code font.

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

Yes, it's grotesque.

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

Eh, just a cheap Helvetica clone.

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

Nice find, thanks!

[nelots@lemm.ee]

0 seems a bit too indistinguishable from O, but otherwise I'm also a big fan of the numbers.

?

[nelots@lemm.ee]

I love Century Gothic and most of Futura, though I'm not sure how I feel about Futura's lowercase j.

[leftzero@lemmynsfw.com]

I didn't say it was a well made cheap Helvetica clone. ‍️

[powermaker450@discuss.tchncs.de]

Any Inter fans?

I'm not sure how I feel about Futura's lowercase j

Gets the job done, with minimal effort.

[komfortableskissen@discuss.tchncs.de]

They did, in fact, nail it.

But we are speaking about a Computer Font right now, idk what that has to do with handwriting and who cares about handwriting in 2024. With universal i mean that any kind of number should look god, no matter if its a Telefon Number, a Price or a Street Number.

[gmtom@lemmy.world]

The subtle kerning of it, the tasteful thickness of it, my god it's even got serifs.

[pyre@lemmy.world]

we're not speaking about a computer font, we're speaking about typography in general. and what you said is not universal; there are different kinds for different uses. just like uppercase and lowercase letters.
