Typelol Boring Admin

Just a lil' gif taster.
Anyone interested in seeing any of the weird admin/management stuff for Type.lol, or is that boring?

I am a grown man.

College-educated.

Have been using technology for over 25 years.

And my printer still only works about 55% of the time.

I’ve got 4 free tickets for TDC / Type Drives Commerce on March 13:

PM me if you’re keen. First in, first served.

Thought I'd share this video explaining type.lol to try to be more helpful and more clear (who I am, why I'm working on type.lol, what it is, what it's for, how to use it, etc).

If it's useful, amazing! If you wish I answered more about XYZ let me know and I'll make a follow up!

@mark Thank you very much. This is a huge addition.
I don’t even have the words in English to say how amazing it is. 🙏

Do you think it would be possible to add a direct link to Fonts In Use?

They use a redirect system, for example:
https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/gt-flexa
which automatically redirects to:
https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/112750/gt-flexa

GT Flexa in use

Comes in seven widths from X Compressed to X Expanded, plus a monospaced variant, each in seven weights from Lazer to Black, in roman and italic styles.

[SPOTTED] If you missed it: a huge update of type.lol, the ultimate tool to dive into 830+ independent foundries around the world, their work and news.

I did a quick flick-through of Fine Specimens, which comes out very soon: 10th March in the US and 12th March everywhere else. You can pre-order yours now from anywhere that sells books. https://geni.us/FineSpecimens
