Fontdue: ecommerce platform for type foundries

<p>Since the early 19th century and the appearance of latin sans serifs, structure and proportion were explored and combined in many ways before being solidified into canon. Mier’s shape, structure, and contrast relate equally to both geometric and grotesque canons. A few key glyphs vary (J, M, a, j, t, u, 6, 9, &), forming Mier A and Mier B, in order to highlight this duality.</p>

General Type Studio: Mier

Ah, now I see it too. It’s bad usability. The links too: they are black without an underline.

I’d love to try out https://www.fontdue.com/, but there is no pricing, nowhere to look up what it will cost once the free trial is over. Who buys the cat in the bag? #fontdue

See https://www.generaltypestudio.com/fonts/mier. There too,  minuscule pricing tags, which you need to click on in order to buy a font. No link colour or button. Really bad usability, with a preference for visual aesthetics over function. I wonder if they’re making any money?

Pricing is absolutely delusional for a small type foundry. Imagine you’re selling two to three fonts each month—at best! Each font is perhaps $10. You’ll never earn enough to afford the monthly fee of $49.

I see pricing! It's just hidden at the bottom of the page, not great content design.
