But... I like Calibri... 🙁

Too bad you are forever doomed to using Aptos since it’s impossible to change fonts.

I am, tho'. If it's the new standard Windows font, it's going to become the new standard communication font at work.

I hate how people (not us but most people out there) are so profoundly lazy so as to do exactly this. Changing your default font in the options is too much apparently. So everyone becomes forced to use the default.

Calibri would be ok as a default font in my book, if they had taken the time to further differentiate a capital “I” and a lowercase “l”

Honestly how does something like that just go untouched for years.

I get so many emails sent to me incorrectly because of that.

I work with codes a lot. And so it’s not like I can figure out what the character is based on context. It’s a code, it can be either one.

I manage a few shared mailboxes, so I’ll often get an email meant for “hlt” to the “hit” box. The scary thing is that all of these emails contain identifying personal information for clients and these people aren’t even making sure they have the correct email address before hitting send.

I really liked the squircled I dots.
