Font licensing #2

Closed WorldMaker closed 5 years ago

WorldMaker commented 5 years ago

Futura PT is a commercial font that needs commercial font licenses paid for its use. Distributing it in this repository is likely a copyright violation, and you should consider switching to an openly licensed font.

One resource for finding fonts appropriately licensed for open web usage is Google Fonts: https://fonts.google.com/

Semi-related you should be aware that using "Light" weights of fonts for body text can make long-form reading tough, which may be the opposite of what you want in a blog setting.
