Classic font option(s)?

I don't know if this change happened during the big 2.0 update, but I have to say I miss the larger serif font from back in the day - just felt very iconic (and classy!) in a way that instantly grabbed my attention. To that end, I'd love to see an option in the appearance menu to change fonts and font sizes

I think perhaps my issues with the new font are that the weight is slightly thinner, and the letter spacing feels comparatively cramped?

Thanks Bardi! I'm trying to remember the way Merriweather was originally implemented, but it feels like the new font is only applied to certain text elements in a way that comes off a less intentional? To be honest, it also generally feels less "charming" than Merriweather did, but I'm having trouble truly articulating why :/

2.0.29 finally restores a serif as a font pairing option and we call it Classy (: You need to turn it on. Sorry it took so long.

I can look around, but honestly (unless it's not free or not available) I do really like Merriweather! Playfair seems nice, but feels a bit too "fancy" in some of its smaller details, even when selecting a bolder variant. Merriweather seems to hit a sweet spot for me of refined but not overboard, I guess? Again, something that really caught my eye back when I started using the app :)

Agreed. If you have any suggestions for a clean, modern (and free!) serif, let me know. Think Merriweather — the previous serif — is a bit dated right now. Playfair Display is probably my pick at the moment: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playfair+Display.
