So, yeah, basically the title …
I am in search for a good and simple and modern font viewing application. But there seems to be nothing that matches my criteria.
-
The software needs to be independent from any desktop environment, because I don’;t use one and i am not willing to install what feels like hundreds of specific dependencies
-
The software also should not be a font manager, I can manage my fonts absolutely fine by my own.
-
The software also does not need any features to view “installed and uninstalled” fonts (a term I come across – whatever that means), just give it a file name as parameter and view that font in the GUI.
-
The software should not be dead (i.e. last upstream change over a decade ago, using a dead graphics toolkit, not working on Wayland, etc.).
But either I forgot how to search the web or there seems to be no such application. All I wound was either decades old, dead software, or overly complicated and complex font managers or modules for the two common desktop environments.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance :)


Lol no, i have my browsers fonts limited on purpose, to avoid visual overload.
You are the minutiae of users.
And?
And your user pattern doesn’t make my point any less correct or relevant. In fact… Not sure why you even commented in the fashion you chose to.
