#affinity3 — Public Fediverse posts

We know it is against ethics of the type design community, but after #Affinity not fixing a bug for almost a year, we changed the axis names in #PurpleHaze to “wght” and “wdth”.
Technically wrong, but we rather have it work for everyone.

Weight Unispace: wght
Weight Spaced: wdth

(It’s a silent update without new version number)

Thanks for all the tips and comments.
