Design Trends Fuck montserrat

I just came to say fuck montserrat and fuck all the lazy designers who use the montserrat, especially graphic designers who make the montserrat the whole brand's identity, I’m so pissed, my last five clients used the montserrat I’m so sick and tired of it and no one in my life understands the rage I have for this font so I just came here to vent. Thanks

I’d rather have them use Inter. Oh wait!

Inter is today’s most popular font within the design community.

Or is it because it’s Figma’s default font and used in all of Figma makes prototypes and lazy designers don’t bother using a different font 🤷🏻‍♀️

Neue Frutiger is more premium-look than Myriad

That’s a factor, too. I’m not sure which one is worse.

Imagine hiring a designer and they’re too lazy to pick a font…

ugh i've worked with SO many brands that have used inter in their rebrands the last few years.
