Was Calibri accused of racism?
I tend to favour Lucida Console.

That is lame.
1) I like Calibri and Cambira for sarifs. They are my defaults.
2) Why delete a font? Is there not enough RAM or something?
Oh never mind. They delete a font because, well because we can delete anything we want like the Taliban deletes 1000 year old Buddhist statues. Now get your vaccine!

Why are all the candidates sans serif? I prefer serif fonts.

[2) Why delete a font?]
Obviously, to reduce the Global Font Carbon Footprint.
Duh.
We haz less than 9 years before planet Earth goes BOOM! from Global Warming.

Many core, very basic features that used to work in Office on the Mac are broken now. They crippled VBA. The whole Office suite is larded down with useless crap. They force you to pay an annual license fee now and the apps check in with the mothership regularly, delaying program launch.
And they want to spend money playing with FONTS? Is this a rewind to the 1984 wonders of WYSIWYG?
Idiots.

I usually default to Tahoma. Looks clean and gets the job done.

The Gilligan’s Island font seems like a good one.

Did a hypersensitive get triggered or something? All the crap going on and they’re so in the weeds even fonts can get canceled? Damn!

Given the context of our current state of affairs, this is nothing more than distraction. Worthless, useless, gobbeldegook in a sea of gobbeldegook.
