Note that there still have been no studies on its efficacy. At worst, it is a great font to avoid ambiguity between characters.

      I wish there was an open font that tries to do the same thing, but with an aesthetic that wasn’t reminiscent of comic sans.

      I wonder how it works. Maybe it has to do with the intentional varying of the sizes of holes in letters, and the lopsided lines so one can’t be confused as another.

      I actually changed my Anki to OpenDyslexic a couple of months ago! I changed it again when Atkinson Hyperlegible Next came out, but I agree that OpenDyslexic makes reading a breeze.

      My only grievance with OpenDyslexic is that I don’t think I could send reports with this font without pushback. On the other hand, I have sent multiple reports using Atkinson Hyperlegible and nobody has ever said a thing.
