Geist Serif

phenomen

I use Geist Sans and Mono for almost all of my projects. I'm looking forward to Fontsource/Google Fonts adding Serif to the repository.

Sad that “crafted by hand” immediately makes me think Claude made it.

I like it. I'm not generally that enthusiastic about these corporate fonts (though I know why they do it) but it's good to see some strong opinions in the serifs. It's so much better than the exaggerated anachronistic ink traps that has become such a visual cliche of the 2020s internet.

I'm into typography and I like trying out new fonts, but what's with the sudden flood of everyone making their own lately? I remember how novel and interesting it was a few years ago when, like, JetBrains Mono came out. Now it's like every code-adjacent company has their own. Is AI particularly good at font design or something?

Pretty stylish. Thumbs up.

Feels very Halloween-y especially with that vampire N and the sharp serifs. Not a candidate for my rotation.

Sans-serif for body, serif for headlines? Unconventional choice.

Outside-the-box big brain idea for font webpages with walls of gibberish: Make the font for the gibberish the font.

The letterforms look good, but why is the kerning so off? It looks omitted in the graphics.

Okay, the special dot choices are pretty pretttttty nify! This font renders like trash on my 9 year old widescreen, but I am sure it will look gorgeous on a MBP display. Guess I found my excuse to upgrade!

Very hard to read in small sizes. It mushes together to a big mud ball for my eyes. Large is nice.

> At Vercel, Geist Sans runs the product. For headlines, though, we wanted a second voice, one that belongs to the same system, instead of a stranger picked from a drop-down menu. I hate hate hate hate hate this verbiage. I can't tell if this is AI or the kind of insipid marketroid-speak that gave AI writing its distinctive grossness, but it makes me want to barf reading this slop, which is a shame because the font itself is nice.

Those triangular serifs remind me of Ming script fonts.[0] Also the indentation in the code sample near the end is quite terrible [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_CJK_fonts#Ming
