This is not a "what font is this" question, but rather a question about how to search for fonts.

I usually have an idea of what I want the font to convey, but have trouble finding a font corresponding to the feeling I want. Dafont's classification is really helpful, but I wondered if there was a place with something "more".

For example, let's say I want a font "sober", "light", or "young", or even a combination of these. Is there a place where fonts would be sorted like this?

DAFONT's ratio of good-to-awful fonts is something like 1:100. It's not the place to go to browse typefaces most of the time.

Your best bet is likely myfonts.com

They represent a rather huge variety of type designers and vendors and have a fairy extensive tagging/classification system that makes it fairly easy to navigate around by style/theme/etc.

All that said, not sure 'sober' and 'young' would be terms often used to describe typefaces, so that still may be a bit of a challenge.
