This forum and it's Repo has an inconsistent font usage from Helvetica, Segoe UI, Arial Narrow, and little bit Montserrat. I suggest, if there's a custom CSS available on the control panel, to leave these font to the user's browser default font by using this:

CSS:
body, button, input, select, textarea, .fr-box.fr-basic .fr-element{
  font-family: sans-serif;
}
nav, h1, h2, h3, h4{
  font-family: serif;
}

.bbHeading{
  padding-left: 0;
}

Last bit of code is to make heading more consistent with body text. Of course, you can use your own font to strengthen the forums identity, example:
CSS:
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Doto&family=DotGothic16');

body, button, input, select, textarea, .fr-box.fr-basic .fr-element{
  font-family: 'DotGothic16', sans-serif;
}
nav, h1, h2, h3, h4{
  font-family: 'Doto', serif;
}

.bbHeading{
  padding-left: 0;
}
 
i haven't noticed any thing odd about the font. then again, all of the font reads as sans-serif to me.
where are you seeing the inconsistences at?
 
When I came here few days ago:
  • Forum Navigation is Segoe UI
  • Post Headings are Arial Narrow
  • Repo Headings are Montserrat
  • Repo Search Address box and Filter Pulldown is Merriweather
  • Repo Navigation is Helvetica
  • Repo Random Game Button is Helvetica
  • Repo Post Navigation (Previous and Next game) is Montserrat
  • Everything else is Segoe UI
 
huh, that's five different fonts, but they look the same to me.
 
Noticing this kind of things puts food on my table ::lol
 
yeah, i had to learn about fonts in a few college classes. all i can mainly do is tell the difference between serif and san serif.
