Do you use these fonts for you? I think I have asked before not to use them here, because it makes it incredibly difficult for me to read and make sense of. Seems silly perhaps to some, but it is a bit like how there are better and worse fonts for dyslexics. My brain does enough work as it is, without adding additional and unnecessary (for me) cognitive load.

I don't deny this at all. It has been happening for a long time, but it is ramping up at an exponential rate and the spread has lead to a homogenisation of information sources and influence, concentrating more and more in the hands of few for all intents and purposes.

There is no going back, but I put little faith in the majority of people making moves forward that are healthy for themselves or others.

My friend, a thousand apologies. I use a Markdown language editing extension, and I overlooked to remove the font and leave it as normal. I understand the difficulties it might cause you, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
