When remote fonts are blocked, the text is rendered with Comic Sans. Not a good look.
Or is it the best look?

#32this, mixed with the look of a LaTeX document is exactly the kind of vibe I'm looking to go with for my personal site as well. Something just so appealing about it to me.
that, and the ultra-minimal look of websites of old university professors (basically just html and nothing else) looks so cool to me.
i wish personal blogs were more popular!

#34There’s a little typo in the simple example: Note closing header not main.
Another thing, semantically - the HEADER and FOOTER should go before & after, respectively, the MAIN tag

#35Starred, love this. I’m looking for something more than a reset but less than a framework on something at the moment and this is on my shortlist of places to look for inspiration about what modern advanced CSS looks like. Is there a central place for in-the-know CSS wizards to post and discuss their most recent next level demo? Years ago there was something called like CSS Zen Garden or something but times have moved…

Looks great, thank you kindly!

#36Love this. Classless styling can offer so much, especially in the context of document-driven websites.

#37This is a great example of how a font can really compliment the style you're going for. It fits so well that you hardly notice it at all.

The font doesn't seem that great to me. Not sure exactly why but while it's not quite difficult for me to read, it's not as easy as other common fonts.

I think that's kind of the whole point. It is introducing an ambience, it is deliberately made quirky and irregular like the handwriting of some. It is not a common font and that means our eyes are going to be slightly unused to reading it.

I'm a bit annoyed to realize my current setup isn't blocking google fonts. I usually block things like that at the /etc/hosts level.
