Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link his Normalize-OpenType.css journal post about a CSS library that turns on OpenType font features such as ligatures. Commenters use it for typography tweaks.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
Kenneth Ormandy is a designer living in Vancouver, BC.
What Hacker News says?
In a previous lifetime I was a huge typography nerd (I could name 95% of common fonts in just a glance ~10 years ago). These are ligatures. I got the code to enable them from Kenneth's excellent Normalize-Opentype.css [0] [0]: https://kennethormandy.com/journal/normalize-opentype-css/
