We have over 100 responses so far, but to be able to make solid conclusions, we need have 100 more. Do you know someone who speaks Armenian? Ask them to fill the form! 🙏

To better to understand Armenian readers preferences and legibility of certain type design choices we prepared an online survey. Do you speak Armenian? Please take part, or help us spread the word. bit.ly/TPTQArmenian23

My grandfather was the only one out of 13 siblings to survive the #ArmenianGenocide The rest perished in Constantinople. 4 years after the start of The Armenian Genocide, in his early twenties, he was already publishing books like this.

Fun fact: In original Fit, @djrrb snuck in a typographic easter egg hidden under the  tree. ____ |ॐ| ‾‾‾‾‾ Since seeing it, I have been hoping for an Indic script expansion. Enter: @KimyaGandhi skillfully interpreting the phenomenally illegible forms for «Fit Devanagari»!

Check out @KimyaGandhi’s Devanagari companion to @djrrb’s amazing typeface »FIT«! It’s one of the most extreme & fun to use fonts we’ve ever seen! motaitalic.com/product/fit-d…

Have you ever used Type-X? It’s a tool I made with @PixelAmbacht to easily apply custom font overrides across the web. Now, it either needs to be sunset or get another round of work. Has it been / would it be valuable to you? Let us know! 👇 github.com/arrowtype/type-x
