>You might be firing yourself up a little too much
Why, I'm not "firing myself up" at all. To the contrary, it's rather calming to talk about fonts rather than wars.
> The web site banner and slogans are ehh lets say intentionally and super-obviously grand, if you get what I mean. (?)
So is your attitude towards feedback, if you get what I mean. (?)
>I shared it so anyone else who likes it also can use it. It works really well for me. A few others have told me the same. That’s more than enough for me.
The fact that you have donation links, a Patreon page, and a merch store[1] indicates otherwise.
Clearly, "a few people telling you it works for them" wasn't enough; you'd also like people to give you money and buy your merch so that you could make a living doing this.
From your Patreon:
>If everyone who visited the font home page and downloaded the font had contributed like you do, I could have developed Victor Mono and other fonts as a full-time job.
So... yeah.
>It’s great that you have found something else that works for you

How would you know that?
