@chr convert to webfont embed into css

that's how i did it in mynameiser.in

@squirrel thats too much work for my 3am brain i'll do it later

i fucking love how this style makes it feel like i'm in the 90s using fucking palacechat or something. post me a bulletin over dialup, h4x0rs

(with apologies to anyone who was actually around and doing computer stuff in the 90s)

@chr *cough giggle*

@chr lol it was so boring back then

@chr Technically you could embed it as base64 but then the userstyle would be super huge

@Eramdam fuck, yeah that would be pretty bad. might do it tho

@chr You could add

-webkit-font-smoothing: none;

to disable the anti-aliasing on text for a maximum 90s effect

@chr (I'm currently on Wikipedia + w/ my cybre.space acct w/ the userstyle trying to see which macOS font would work as a substitute for "MS Sans Serif")

@Eramdam the key to the aesthetic is the lack of antialiasing, which particular font it is doesn't matter quite as much beyond that

@chr True, but still, if you wanna provide a macOS fallback I suggest Monaco (or Menlo but it's fixed-width so that might not be what you want) https://octodon.social/media/so696YpzStHscHGZW8w

@chr (also the userstyle doesn't change the background color of column so when they're empty they're still dark ;p )

@Eramdam i knew it missed something :P

@chr lmk if you want me to try on my empty account on cybre haha

@chr Post a hash of it using sha256 and perhaps people can use ipfs.io to load it? :)

@Efi uh no for one it's probably hella copyrighted by microsoft and for another it's a bitmap font and i couldn't find a TTF of it _anywhere_, i had to convert it in fontforge by hand

@chr oh shit
