I was surprised by how functional it is. I thought an analog, print-first font would look weird on an OLED screen, but it actually made the UI look more serious and it gets out of the way. I also found it’s much easier for my brain to sight-read than the curvy Samsung font, funnily enough. I think it must be because I’ve encountered Times since childhood meaning the shapes of the words are burnt into my brain. Or perhaps it’s the thick/thin parts of the letters being where my brain expects them to be.

    You just renewed my appreciation for good font choices. Good font choices include many fonts in many contexts, but unless you’re writing a college paper, times new Roman isn’t one of them imo
