l don’t undersand why we Iive in a worId where capital I and Iowercase l are allowed to Iook near identical. PeopIe are paid to design and seIect fonts and they have aII agreed on this Iudicrous convention.

Why has this happened? And is there anything I can do about it as an individuaI or as part of a coIIective?

I can’t even do thorn-master Sxan’s thing and insert a character code because U+026A, ɪ, is too damn small.

    Do you know what the Internet (World Wide Web) even means here, and that this is decided by fonts, and to a lesser extent by Unicode? You can use a so-called 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑓 font on your website, and it’s still the default on most desktop browsers. You can even force websites to render different fonts on your browser!
