The Best Resource for Pirating Fonts - Lemmy

Being in the graphic design business, it’s frustrating what a customer doesn’t send their branding-designated fonts. Adobe has a lot available, but not everything. I’ve found that the best resource for finding expensive or niche fonts is VK.com [http://VK.com]. There’s a big font sharing community there, and you can usually fond what you’re looking for. You can search all of VK.com [http://VK.com] by googling site vk.com "font" "your font name here"

Never heard of that one, seems like Adobe never has the fonts I need. I generally get lucky with a quick google search or a site like dafont.

Seems like some phishy BS, NGL.

No different than downloading from rutracker if you ask me.

Rutracker doesn’t require my phone number. 🖕🏽

You don’t have to sign up. You would know if you bothered to try.

I bothered to look, fuck clown. The sign-up page explicitly asks for phone number, though the preceding page says “or”. Downvote all you want, bots and all. Your post is bullshit, OP.

What a formidable rebuttal that both debunks my screencapped proof above and completely vindicates OP.

Most impressive.

Stay in school, kiddo.

Ok, ill just keep downloading fonts without having to sign up to the website, like I always have been. You lack the ability to do more investigation, so there’s no helping you

Aww, is indirect context covered in next semester lit class? My bad. Good luck with all your future one-handed online adventures, cupcake. At least you like you, right?

I don’t like to see fellow pirates fighting each other - save it for the corporate overlords! To clarify this issue, you absolutely can Google search the site the OP mentioned via Google and download links etc. Think of that site kind of like the Russian Facebook/Instagram/YouTube all rolled into one. They do have an app they try to get you to download, and they do want you sign up for an account, but the content is also indexed by Google so you can find stuff without the app and without logging in, using the method described by the OP.

Can we all relax now?

This would’ve been a responsible addition to include in the initial post, not just for clarity but to safeguard our fellow members from the phishing evident on that login page. Thanks for weighing in. I’ll go back to kickin’ corpo teeth in.

Can confirm, vk is legit for fonts. Just be nice on the boards and you’ll usually get what you’re looking for.
