Inconsistency with the 'outfit'-ligature #7

Thanks to ligatures, but there is also:

This is not nice...

Hey this intentional as we only wanted to support the lowercase ligature. This might change in future or we might just add a 'tfi' liga but for now this behaviour was deliberate. Thanks for your input

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your explanation and I am sorry for your trouble; you already made this clear in a reply to an earlier comment on GitHub.

Please be aware that on the outfit.io website the word "Outfit" is used extensively. I just checked the website front page and counted two occurrences of "outfit" (top-left and bottom-right corners) and five times "Outfit":

This strongly suggests that "Outfit" is the brand name and that "outfit" in your nice lettering with the ligature and a somewhat heavier font-weight is used as the logo. However, it seems there is also the real "outfit" logo on the page, three times in the picture at the top, and that logo uses a different lettering. This does not look right, in particular not for a company that offers services to "Build Brands Better".

Still, I quite like your font!
