I love that whenever I open a document on any of my devices all of the fonts just load flawlessly. The font preview feature is a great way to see what my text will look like in that font before I fully commit.

I've been a loyal fan and user for 14 years and even though it has always been a reliable platform for my fonts it been getting worse every year over the last few years. It is slow, riddled with bugs, and constantly crashes. I have a 2018 MacBook pro...

The program is native to my Macbook, so easy to use and transfer to new computers. And easy to add fonts to it.

There isn't too much that I openly dislike about it. However, I think it could be re-designed to have a more aesthetic appeal. It seems to be very standard and a little boring.
