    Personally I prefer Archivo Regular 400 and upwards and depending on use case, point size of the type can vary. The light versions are too thin imho. Futura and I do have some saved font collections but i forget the names. As long as the spacing between letters is good (aimed for readability, not for Taylor Swift quotes, with no attack on Taylor herself), shapes easily contrast from the background, provided that proper color is used too. Eh, but I’m just mindlessly rambling at this point lmao.

    Also, the all white and thin font is painful to look at (sorry). No option to customize to a high-contrast layout option? Me thinks Roboto would do well say in a dark background and neon colored font (thank you Microsoft VSC)

      Capriola and Montserrat used to be my go-to body fonts when I was still blogging. Granted, the audience was just me, but I thought it was very legible and looks good on a wall of text.

      Not something I would use on a formal document, however.
