Comparison between Discord's old and new font.
It's reminiscent of Public Sans, but maybe slightly less harmonious in its design. I don't hate it, though.

Prevent ministers and officials from hiding substantial policy changes as minor
I’ve always found government codebases fascinating, since you can directly witness the intersection of code and law!
Also see this issue raised on the Public Sans repo, which claims the typeface (created by the American government) is unconstitutional:

Inter – a beautiful font-family for Interface Designs
I've loved using Inter for a long time, and I'm glad they finally fixed some odd kerning/letter spacing issues between certain letters that always bothered me and prevented me from using it on projects.
I think Inter is getting more popular (since it's free) and replacing other popular ones like Circular that cost an arm and a leg, and pretty "look the same" in the lay-person's eyes.
There's a whole slew of similar, free typefaces now: Public Sans (https://public-sans.digital.gov/), Work Sans (https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Work+Sans), Metropolis (https://fontsarena.com/metropolis-by-chris-simpson/)
