: Is it possible to use a monospaced font for an information focused webpage? Monospaced fonts are used mainly for code editors and other special purposes and not usually for normal web pages,

@Welton168

Yeah why not? Monospace fonts originated from typewriters. Because typewriter letter blocks have a fixed width, it was necessary to make a font on a fixed grid.

Back in the days journalists used typewriters to write their blogs (haha. Anachronism there :)) it would be perfectly fine on a conceptual level.

But on a legibility level its a whole different subject. Monospace fonts are harder to read. They need extra care.

But why not give it a try.
