Does anyone else hate the dyslexia font?

Edit: I can’t edit the title. That said, I don’t hate the font exists. I’m glad it helps some people. I just used that word because I’m frustrated that it’s the only option in many places and it feels horrible to read for me. I am glad it exists for anyone that does get benefit from it and I regret using the word hate. [end edit]

Or is it just me? It’s not as bad to me as a serif font, but it’s a downgrade from most any of the common sans-serif fonts imo.

I have an affinity for terminal fonts, especially Fira. Anyone else?

I’m over 40 and have learned coping methods for dealing with p/q, b/d, and the like… so I can see the what they were going for in the dyslexia font, but for me it just kills my reading speed, and a simple cleaner font is much easier for me. Personally I feel like there’s a lot more to the problem of reading smoothly than what the dyslexic font tries to address.

Just curious what the consensus is on here.

Edit: after the mod bot’s suggestion, I looked at the official font post here and it mention a new font called “Atkinson Hyperlegible”. It’s not specifically for dyslexia, but is engineered for readability. I have only previewed it, but at first glance it looks pretty good. Not sure I’ll prefer it over Fira, but I might try it as a system font for a bit and see how I like it.
