Ask HN: What is your favorite blogging typeface?

2 pointsby LorenzoGood10 months ago
Hi,<p>I am looking for a typeface to use for my new blog, and I am wondering what your favorite typefaces are. (Both for prose, and for code display).

Do you want a serif or sans serif for the body text?<p>For a serif, I think Crimson Pro is very nice.<p>You can see it, and many others, on this site: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beautifulwebtype.com&#x2F;crimson-pro&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;beautifulwebtype.com&#x2F;crimson-pro&#x2F;</a><p>For sans serif, I like Helvetica, but the original Helvetica might not be easily available outside of Apple’s operating systems.

I&#x27;ve been experimenting with Libre Baskerville, but my go to in the past has always been Meriwether.

Consolas for code. It&#x27;s the font that Sublime Text uses.
