@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks. 😅 I didn’t check the time, but I guess something between 15 and 30 minutes? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s dedication. And it really shows. Again, your font is easier to read for me than the average Fraktur I come across. I don’t really understand it, but I trip more often in books.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Might be because the typical “German Fraktur” (this isn’t a thing) uses very unusual uppercase letters. And “k” is just weird. And “f” and “ſ” (long “s”) are very close together.

This is “Luther’sche Fraktur” from around 1708 (a photo from the book “Fraktur” by Albert Kapr), the book says this was one of the most popular ones:

I have lots of trouble deciphering those uppercase letters.

By the way, this is worth mentioning: Fraktur fonts are often associated with Nazi Germany, but did you know that the Nazis eventually banned these fonts in 1941?

Yeah. Typical Nazi stuff.
