Needs a better title font for headlines.

Georgia Bold is not fit for the purpose, and there's no earthly reason to use it at 55px.

There are so many good serif fonts to choose from on Google Fonts. An embarrassment of riches.

Just took a look out of curiosity. Zero is an insignificantly reduced version of lcase alphabetic 'o'.

Fonts that don't distinguish between 0 and O/o are abominations before God and all that is good in life.

Yeah, the typography choices here are poor. Nice idea but readability on mobile isn’t great sadly.
