I've started using Atkinson Hyperlegible variants for everything by default. It's designed for legibility and what could be more important for a general-purpose font?
That's my general go to too.
Do you know of any fonts that would make that one dude's replies with the thorn character actually legible? My glaucoma makes it a bitch to decipher so I tend to not even bother reading those replies.
Not sure of the person you're referring to, but I'd give Atkinson Hyperlegible a try :)
I downloaded it, just trying to figure out how to get it going on Android at this point. The website was easier to read than my current default at least.
Wingdings!
