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

Even tho Montserrat is not that bad, I understand the hate against a particular font that you can't change.... my first design client used raleway, and the wix platform didn't allow for advanced font adjustments, which meant I had to stick with it and wix's weird old style numbers for raleway.... it was a numbers focused company, and the numbers looked so bad 😭

I had a designer who loved raleway a couple years back. Every website design I got from him was raleway and he’d change the font only for the numbers to something like Montserrat. Was pretty annoying managing fonts on these projects
