In defense of an old pixel

Say hi to Marcin. He’s obsessed with pixel fonts and wants to take you on a journey through all 3,000 that he has found. Yes, he actually promised he will show you ALL of them! “But it’s not just for nostalgia,” he says. “Pixel fonts are a much richer, much more approachable, and an ever-relevant canvas for creativity. I want you to fall in love with pixel fonts the way I keep falling in love with them, over and over again."
