Readability Warning

Fancy fonts look cool but can cause problems:

  • Screen readers can't interpret decorative Unicode characters
  • Some fonts don't display on older devices
  • Overly ornate fonts reduce searchability
  • Instagram search may not index special characters properly

The Balanced Approach

Use decorative fonts for your name or a short tagline, but keep essential information (contact, links, keywords) in standard text. This ensures accessibility while still looking stylish.
