I don’t know how many people on here know about Fredrick Brennan.
After scripting 8chan as a teenager, he denounced Qanon and became a typedesigner.
He worked for Font Forge for a while and started his own modular font editor Q later K.

He also “reverse engineered” HOI (Higher Order Interpolation) by @underware.

He died on 10th of January. #RIP
Here are some thought by Arthur Jones with some examples of his type design:

@eWalthert @underware I had a brief interaction with him on Twitter a few years ago about licensing models in the gaming industry, which I found quite insightful. After that, I read about his path into type design, the most unexpected biography imaginable. Rest in peace, Fredrick!

@mntrs Same here, I had some short interactions with him on the bird site back in the days. Mainly recommending him to not call his editor Q if he really wants to leave this past behind. (I was not the only one with that advice, not trying to claim credits for the renaming)

@mntrs @eWalthert always sad to hear somebody’s passing away at such a young age.
I also came across his name some years ago on twitter when he worked on his font editor. Rest in Paradise, Frederick.

@eWalthert I was just a while ago wondering what became of him. Hadn't heard anything from him since I left Twitter. May he rest in peace!
