@UiSavior what year is it?

Just came across the @typedex which seems really interesting! typedex.to Will add to the lists page on the Type Foundry Directory when I get a chance. (typefoundry.directory/lists/)

built something similar for typedex. we use a 'similarity game' to train our font-similarity model with human judgment. admins review triplets and choose which font is closer to the anchor, and those manual inputs feed back into the algorithm to refine the similarity graph over time.

If you can't make a decision, ask Cursor to make you a quiz. I've found this helpful when dealing with a lot of variables in a project - I can go through (pressing Y or N keys) and see/compare results at the end. This example, I needed to compare three different sans across length and scale.

69% of being a designer is managing fonts you'll never use
