I'm always really confused about how dotted zeroes became the norm for these fonts. I always confuse them with eights and vastly prefer slashed zeroes. Would love to try this if it had such a variant.

There's languages where a slashed circle is a letter, and a slashed zero makes things confusing. Dotted zeroes have much less opportunity for confusion in that direction. I guess type designers could emphasise the convex sides of a dotted zero with the concave sides of an "8" to keep them visually distinct, but I don't know if this font does that.

>>ollien+(OP)
I suggested slash zero in an issue and some rando mentioned dotted zeroes serve the same purpose. So annoying.

Θ.

This is why some fonts like Atkison Hyperlegible use reverse slashed zero, which removes the confusion.

Theta

I figured he was referring to Ø used in Danish.

>>Yellow+qO
Yes, but the dot-zero also has a letter to confuse it with.
