Introducing SUSE Typeface: SUSE’s new open sourced font

Already in the AUR as otf-suse and ttf-suse. :)
- Silly question: what's the difference between the otf and ttf fonts?
  Edit: thanks for the explainers!
  
  As far as I understand it, TTFs are more basic, while OTF can have more features and glyphs.

no dotted zeroes = no terminal use
- I don't think this font was designed for the terminal. It's a sans font with some inspiration from monospace styling, but with focus of brand recognition and usage in headlines or text. That's what I'm getting here. Similar to what Ubuntu does with their font.
- I don't see a monospaced version anyway

Not a fan of semi-serif fonts, and not digging the rounded "corners" on E and L (while having sharp ones in lowercase L and lowercase i), but it seems it is trying to be highly readable so indeed it should be great for UI stuff. And doing a complete typeface covering such huge character map is no easy job.

I like it. Not gonna nitpick. It's nicer than those microsoft fonts that came out recently

I don't understand how that hybrid is supposed to work. Monospace is a binary attribute; either all chars have the same width or not. So what is the font now?
- It says that it s "inspired" by monospaced fonts. I imagine they mean stuff like the tiny serif on the lowercase i
  
  This
- That's a great question, on the face of it I can't find very much info online. Wikipedia has an entry for monotype but not hybrid. The page 'hybrid font' does not exist. If anyone has more info please feel free to tag me, I'd love to know.

What is going on with that lowercase g?
- That’s fairly standard for serif fonts like times new roman, baskerville, etc. Although it is uncommon in modern sans serif fonts and/or fonts designed to be viewed on a screen.
  
  The Fira family has a similar fancy g for some reason

I will give the font a try!
I'm not dyslexic, but I think legibility is super important and underrated on most distros. This one looks both aesthetic and very readable.
Do you know if it is already in the Fedora repos? If not, how can I install it?
- Personally just grabbed it from their release page: https://github.com/SUSE/suse-font/releases/tag/v1.000. Then dropped those files into my ~/.fonts, directory.

That's awesome! Now how can I add it to Libreoffice?
- Same as any other font. Add it to ~/.fonts or /usr/local/fonts. You might also have something like font browser already preinstalled, and usually there’s an Install button
  
  Thank you! :D

I'm not a fan of the way the lowercase L's tail interacts with uppercase letters, but other than that it's not bad!
- The "fi" combination also seems problematic since they seem to intersect.
  
  That's a ligature, it's deliberate.

It's a nice font. I just have a hard time with trusting SUSE after the SUSE vs OpenSUSE debacle.

That’s a pretty good looking font. I think that lowercase g might be distracting but it’s workable.
- The correct term would be typeface ☝️🤓

Tried it on Gnome, didn't look the greatest. The numbers in the time were really close to the colon in the top panel. Very well could just be a Gnome issue though, the way it handles fonts is weird.

It looks gorgeous. Can't wait to use it in my desktop.
- Been using it myself since it launched, been loving it so far! Got it active on everything except my terminal.

I think it is a beautiful font, but I feel like I can not read it as well as others fonts in my high DPI small font (or basically anything small) setup.
