I would have never thought to not use "what the font"

Yea, I just used WTF to help that guy who was waiting 2 years to find a font.

WTF is often wrong, and actually, I don't think your answer in the 2 year old thread is correct
I agree I feel like it’s just blatantly funneling me into those dubious buy this font sites. I have somewhat better success with http://www.identifont.com/ usually

I don’t think the proposed font is correct either, I’m not even sure the concept of font works for that example though. Mainly the arches on the m are wrong, too arch like and whereas the example is more teardrop.

Op here. I tried what the font a bit but didn't mention it in the article. I didn't get good results with it. Although it's probably a good idea to ask it for a guess, and feed that to the LLM too.
