   Inter 4.1 from @rsms is out!

   https://github.com/rsms/inter/releases/tag/v4.1

   It includes a bunch of little fixes and improvements, but my favorite (and relevant to GNOME!) is that the automatic contextual alternate converting NxN to N×N has been disabled; this was pointed out while testing on GNOME, where it would feel weird seeing e.g. filenames or URLs where the letter “x” would unexpectedly look like the “×” multiplication symbol.

     As such, the GNOME UI font test repo has been updated based on Inter 4.1. If you’ve been trying Inter/the new font out on GNOME, make sure you update!

     https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-ui-font

     (If you didn’t know, we’re testing a modified version of Inter with one change so far: cv05 or “lower-case L with tail” enabled by default to give it a bit more legibility and familiarity for those coming from Cantarell, the current GNOME default font.)
