#UbuntuMono

1 post1 participant0 posts today

The #OS1337 [website](os1337.com) has been updated.

- We moved from #UbuntuMono to #B612Mono because the #B612 font family is licensed under SIL OFL and #Ubuntu's fonts have their own licenses.

- Also B612 is a *superior font* given that #Airbus got it designed, tested, and certified for *Civil Aviation Use*, which means it got extensive testing under harsh conditions.

Aesthetically, it's not much different!

- OFC the #Logo is next with the #Font change...

@todb @emma @mhoye I'm in the process to move from #UbuntuMono to #B612mono.

Also B612 is propably the best tested font that isn't paywalled because it's literally "aviation-grade" (#Airbus uses it for instruments and labels across their modern, in-production aircraft, so we can assume this thing was tested for legibility under harsh G loads and/or vibrations among other adverse conditions.)

@fuchsiii @puppygirlhornypost2 Also I'm not even shure they got that stuff licensed properly.

Personally I intent to migrate from #UbuntuMono to #B612Mono for licensing reasons alone, and also the #B612 family is propably the best tested (#Aerospace certified by #FAA & #EASA) typeface that isn't paywalled behind NDA'd call-for-pricing license deals...
