Show HN: Margo – Find the font your brain reads fastest

Can your wife please try again? -- https://margo.fyi

Also added a step at the front to make it clear (in case it wasn't before) that users should be reading at a normal, relaxed pace. The goal is to test the fonts, not your reading speed.

For improving your speed-reading, that'd be the forked version another commenter suggested. For Margo, you want to read at a comfortable pace

Nah, you're absolutely right. The current passages are 250-300 words.

We'll get them to 400-420 so aliens like your wife can also find their font

What’d be the interaction pattern you’re imagining? First they find their fastest font, then the flow continues to let them use that font to try to get better? Other times they can bypass the font test.

Do you have any reading content suggestions?

I’m imagining they could choose the topic and we’d have a bunch of prebaked stories or information about each.

I guess we can also let them input their first name, or just initials — we validate from a list of common-ish names (so they don’t put something too whacky) — and then the stories or information could include their names. Makes it even more fun and engaging to read. Especially if we the prebaked reading material is positive and empowering. Sesame Street style.

Really like the suggestion. Thanks!
