No matter how carefully you pick the text for your screenshots @JeffBezos you can't hide that garbage typography.pic.twitter.com/CzexUki2Pe

@aaronbell@cgpgrey@jeffbezos Just make ragged-right the default. I’ve been calling for this since 2009: http://hellbox.org/archives/001566.html … -
@hellbox I think we both know that wouldn’t be enough :).@cgpgrey@JeffBezos -
@aaronbell@cgpgrey@jeffbezos It’d be a hell of a good start. But yes: typography IS device design.

@cgpgrey@jeffbezos@benkiel No justification without hyphenation. - View other replies

@letterror@cgpgrey@JeffBezos Perhaps that'll be on the license plates of the Amazon drones...

@cgpgrey i do love a good kerning tweet
-
@thebilly not kerning lol -
@HansFaffing what is it then? -
@thebilly just called 'word spacing,' nothing fancy

@cgpgrey I don't get it. Left justification isn't hard to do. My Kobo has it as an option, looks great. Is it a company philosophy thing? -
@cgpgrey@JeffBezos I was wondering when we'd get the latest@cgpgrey Kindle hot take. -

@cgpgrey@marcoarment@JeffBezos is it garbage? Seems pretty reasonable to me -
@ForrestTheWoods@cgpgrey@marcoarment in web design, we can fix this using hypenation hints viahttps://github.com/mnater/hyphenator …

@cgpgrey@JeffBezos Not a fan of justified text? -
@cgpgrey@JeffBezos That's called "justification". Not sure if ragged alignment would look any better in this case. -
@cgpgrey@JeffBezos Isn't this because it's fully justified? Although, interestingly line breaking is non trivial.https://youtu.be/kzdugwr4Fgk -
@cgpgrey Isn't that just because it's fully justified? Or am I missing something? -
@cgpgrey this image from@verge looks better though?pic.twitter.com/qZVmXzpKhF

@cgpgrey@JeffBezos Bad keming, huh? -
@lowbrr It’s called “justified”—You put as many words as you can in a line, then spread them evenly, leading to different sizes of “spaces”
