Ask HN: Favorite Tech Blog Typography?

5 pointscloverich2 comments

Working on my blog I inevitably end up toying with typography. I enjoy it but surely I am tailoring it more to my own preferences than my readers. So which tech blogs do you like the typography or style of the best? Subjective preference of people who read a lot of blogs is what I am most curious about. Which do you find easiest to read, least distracting, etc?

Actually none :( I generally toggle to firefox's reader-view (Ctrl alt R). although Im not really comfortable with it, and its not always available. What I'd prefer is a mixture of that feature and this typeface/structure: https://books.huijzer.xyz/

An example: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/~cpd/history.html < If this were code, It'd be perfectly fine for me to read, but it is not. And if you toggle to read-view, I gets worse. A customizable read-view would do it. (when I read articles I lay back in my chair, when I code I could spot a typo in the smallest font-size. My two cents. :)
