     @cell @kaia Yes, that or Mona is the best if you want to actually view large swathes of the Japanese internet since many webpages and basically all Shift-JIS art are built around the kerning of that font in particular.

     @allison @kaia when on every linux install i just install the entirety of the windows fonts, fontconfig has this funny thing where it will fallback to bitmap fonts, so there's quite a bit of the JP web which appears...retro

     @allison @kaia latest W10 - they never removed the bitmap fonts, and even newer fonts like Calibri have bitmap fallbacks

     @kaia @cell Japanese web design is in many regards still very conservative so you can find a lot of pages like that floating around if you know where to look (not even counting the English language pages which deliberately imitate that aesthetic because of aesthetic affinity, nostalgia, or to signal some kind of allegiance to an idealization of Japanese culture as they see it)

     @cell @kaia Fred Brennan posted a screenshot of 2channel circa 2019 running under IE 5.5 on Windows 98 and to be honest it looked basically on point.
