Time to post some ligatures again!

If you like this project, and you want to donate a ligature from your own work, please use the template below.
I would greatly appreciate it! Gotta spread the beauty of amazing ligatures!

Thank you to the people that are following this page💚

Ah fuck. I was legit about to start posting again. See you all on the elephant app I guess once I figure out a 3rd party post scheduler.

Genuinely upset at this

[Daily Ligatures @glyphs_fi]

Like, it’s almost the exact shade. I’m glad it’s not their full branding but still a bit surprised about how similar it is and I never knew about it

[Daily Ligatures @glyphs_fi]

Huh

@EvaSilvertant @herzbergdesign Perfect for my linguistic shitposting use cases

Hey, this counts, right? Apologies for the lack of posting lately. I've been busy tweaking the G&A branding a bit (aka fixing colours and switching from TNR to Stix Two), & to celebrate the Discord server reaching 1000 members, we're making our Glyph Challenge this week about fi!

[Daily Ligatures @glyphs_fi]

@fauxcube Oh totally! Even basic letters like ğ are supported and it makes me happy

[Daily Ligatures @glyphs_fi]

Finally some proper glyph support on our servers 🙌

Gassner — an apparent Lubalin fan — substitutes umlauts with small-E alternatives. Read more on @FontsInUse: https://t.co/Gu38qERiog

@atlasaltera Ah, that makes a bit more sense

[Daily Ligatures @glyphs_fi]

@EAlphabets Tim, most of these are created for fun, rather than being actually used in the real world. If anything, this graphic omits some real-world minority scripts located in the area.

[Tim Brookes @TBAlphabets]

The Endangered Alphabets Project is looking for volunteers to help us complete our Red List--a catalogue of every script currently in use, with an assessment of its degree of endangerment. Email [email protected] if interested. Please RT!

@michaelrafailyk One of the most beautiful fi ligatures I've seen, wow!

[Michael Rafailyk @michaelrafailyk]

For a long time I felt the need to practice calligraphy in order to improve my professional skills, so I finally bought the simplest pen with a flat nib.

Very interesting to see a loosely spaced title with ligatures (ch, st), making this blackletter typeface appear almost monospace.

And what a cool ‘ch’ ligature!
