Sunday, I quietly launched something that’s been in the works for more than a year now: a brand new version of my website! Well, quietly… I did yell a little bit internally. Because this isn’t just a fresh coat of paint—it’s a full-blown rebuild. So let’s call it what it is: Daan.dev 2.0. Here’s what’s…

Last week WP 6.5 was released, introducing the Font Manager among other things. Helping an old lady cross the street, that’s what it felt like to add Font Manager support to OMGF Pro v3.12. The Font Manager’s performance was severely lacking, so I decided that OMGF Pro should be the hero to save the day….
With WordPress 6.5 set for release tomorrow, you must’ve been wondering about its fancy, new Font Manager and if it can replace OMGF and/or OMGF Pro. I’ve kept an eye on its development for the past months and I figured now was the right time to publish my findings.
The greatest compliment you can receive is if your ideas are copied. Right?

Let’s compare OMGF’s and CloudFlare Fonts’ features and see if one is better than the other.
