Hey there,

what do you think about making Pixeloid the default font for Luanti?



Doesn't this look much better than the current default font?

I'm not sure how to measure it, but I feel like I'm up against popular opinion. I think pixel fonts are unnecessarily hard to read, often existing at 2-3 pixels size on our modern resolutions. I'm not saying the current Arimo is good, but maybe a different font like a more fun sans serif font would work. I get that hard pixels fit with the aesthetic of most games, but it's possible to make high-res games in Luanti too.

Ideally I'd like to see games able to include fonts and replace them (probably with formspec prepend). That way the pause menu gets styled with a congruent aesthetic.
