#FontsInUse
this is when I wish
– WhatTheFont had a way to select year of publication and a way to select the distinctive details of a font that make an ID, such as the tail on the G here
– FontsInUse had a way to drill down by attributes of a typeface, e.g. period, sans, condensed, weight

@PeiranTan @FontsInUse @BriefcaseType (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafotechna) Also Hlavsa’s “A Book of Type and Design” has different dates for a lot of those typefaces. Perhaps the disparity is in design date vs. release.

Oh cool, definitely gotta read this. I had a thread on Girvin when I stumbled upon this (probably from a FontsInUse comment) bsky.app/profile/supc...

Unintentional, but Apple Emoji is a nice fit w/ @H_FJ’s Ideal Sans in @gruber’s Vesper app. @FontsInUse report soon.

I prefer seeing work in context with type samples, but if you dig a Pinteresty view of @FontsInUse, here’s a board: http://pinterest.com/stewf/best-of-fontsinusecom/

I love fonts in use, but maybe there should be no fonts in use here. https://x.com/FontsInUse/status/904749902437257216

The Fonts In Use team unanimously condemns the assault on safety, security, and basic humanity continually displayed by Twitter’s new ownership. We loved it here, but can no longer justify engaging in this platform. Find us at https://typo.social/@FontsInUse and http://fontsinuse.com.

I don’t blame you. I think on each SocMed platform you have accounts for your 8-10 projects (stewf, letterformarchive, typographica, anatomyoftype, midcenturymodernist, fontsinuse, chromeography, typereview, 12point, fleurcoiffeurliqueur,…more?).

@lubalincenter @FontsInUse These are what made me think TP (1967 catalog), but no match.

they never went away! but it's long been hard to find good type online through search since it's all drowned out by scammy noise.

I'm trying to keep lists of indie foundries but it really does take time to find things. sites like fontsinuse are really helping though.
