Font Shaming - Which fonts do top 737 ProductHunt startups use?

We scraped the top hunts. Which fonts and font combinations do they use?

Conclusions:

* Lots of system fonts

* Lots of Google Fonts

* A long tail of the misspelled fonts

* Shockingly, no Comic Sans!

Finally, some websites use Helvetica and Arial on the same page which raises the question of *font shaming*, a term coined by @tylerlastovich

@visualpharm Love this! But I was clicking around, checked out a combo I'm considering: Montserrat and Spectral. But I don't see Spectral on any of the matching sites (and the same site, basically, is listed 4 times). See? https://icons8.com/fonts/montser...

I can't go to this page. The word "That" is unnecessary, and I'm a stickler for best grammar. Also I like pie.
