You know how it goes, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Google is now proving that by announcing that they’ll be soon charging legacy G Suite users. See ya Google.
I’m still trying to figure out what to make of the latest round of funding and VC-fueled growth for 1Password, but after more than a decade using their products with confidence, I don’t think there’s any need to panic.
Not unrelated, but this idea of a Perpetual-Purpose Trust model of a business is very interesting. I suspect most businesses based on or driven by the claim of some social mission tend to lose their grip on that over time.
I hope Moon Knight turns out to be as anxiety-inducing as the trailer hints at. I’m here for Oscar Isaac either way.
Moxie Marlinspike's take on the current web3/crypto trend (or whatever it is) seems balanced and quite fair to me. Most of what I think so far of all of this myself is: meh, already seems way too complicated so no thanks.
Very Cool Studio has updated all their Trial fonts beyond their original kerning-less state to instead be the real deal just with “Trial” added to the font names. Of course, not ok to use for commercial purposes without a license, so use responsibly. Nudge appears to have somehow slipped past me until now.
Speaking of weird, Valvolina from Device Fonts (aka Rian Hughes) fits the bill. Geometry. Hieroglyphs. Italian Futurism. Not new, but caught my eye this week.
For the right project, Fenotype’s new Tomato Ketchup looks like a winner. Maybe it’s age but I increasingly find myself charmed by these Cooper Black-esque revivals.
Out of the Dark’s new Cosplay is weird. Good weird. Nouveau structure and 1970s stoner vibes rolled into one.
Kristal from Bold Monday — sharp as a tack. So much in this family that’s really fantastic — those italics and ornaments though, so good.
VTC Ruby from Vocal Type, a worthy and important revival and one where the history behind the typeface is absolutely required reading.
