As a non dyslexic I find these fonts "easier" on the eye when reading for longer periods of time despite not liking them aesthetically (I don't hate them either). However, I am in my 40s and my eyes are starting to fail me, I may need an eye prescription but can still read without glasses.


Look into Atkinson Hyper Ledgible. I basically force its use everywhere these days. It’s hard to put my finger on why, but it’s just, well, super legible.

It does all that while still looking like a normal, attractive font too.


The reverse slash of the 0 looks strange, which might have done to elminate a possible confusion with Norwegian ø.


Also differentiates from %.
