A local animal shelter/adoption agency near me uses Inter for their body copy in their graphic designs, and my school's annual magazine uses Inter Black for titles. I've also seen a Ukranian news site use Inter, and I've seen many web3/tech projects use it as well. |

This is interesting - the ISO seems to be using a custom version of Inter on their website, plus they seem to be using a variable version and not a static one. |

Hm? I checked that website on mobile chrome, I didn't try it on desktop. Maybe that's why it switched to Roboto for me |

That is a very elegant font, even more so than Inter in some aspects. How do you know Pretendard is a derived version from Inter? |

There's a huge (~40 meter) freeway GitLab ad near where I live with Inter on it. Puts a smile on my face whenever I drive by it :•) |

Reading through the 📣 Feedback issue: New fonts in GitLab is an interesting read, since it has discussion about some of the issues they've run into and user feedback on the font design which might be applicable to upstream Inter. (Although, be aware that a lot of comments there are talking the monospace font choice.) It is really cool that they're using a version of the Inter variable font with optical size axis enabled, and browsers are automatically using that to adjust heading vs. body text. The choice to enable the disambiguation glyph designs by default is kind of interesting, and totally understandable when used in a context where it's displaying user-defined strings (like git repo names) where they need to make sure to avoid confusable characters. I wonder if they still have the It's not mentioned in that blog post, but they've also disabled the I actually apply some similar tweaks when I use Inter as a UI font (using fontconfig on linux rather than with a customized font), although I personally use |

Very interesting. Thank you for sharing this.
From what I can tell, they only enabled a few alternate glyphs by default, but not the whole set. For example, the regular simple capital i ("I") is used while the alternate lower-case L ("l") is used. Makes sense to me. @twardoch's excellent OpenType Feature Freezer (formerly pyftfeatfreeze) makes it a breeze to customize the "defaults" of fonts.
This is probably the most interesting to me, to learn more about. calt really should not contain stuff that feels like an "extra optional feature" (and of course should not be distracting.) @kepstin What is a specific example of "I personally find |

The parenthesis/brackets are distracting, yes. But the characters that I find most problematic are the vertical movement of In particular, moving the x vertically is a glyph confusion issue, since that means it might be confused with The movement of Also, the vertical realignment of characters when typing certain specific combinations like |

Hey there all, I was checking out things and saw that the NZ government department LINZ recently launched a new website that uses Inter as a secondary font. Unfortunately, it's still relying on the old, dusty Google Fonts CDN instead of the 'official' CDN on rsms.me. What other projects have you seen with Inter used?
