Even as someone who has bought many fonts for coding, including Pragmata Pro, Operator and others (i.e. not cheap ones), I was blown away that for just the Mono weights in regular and italic is nine hundred and sixty dollars.

Shame, I was curious about trying it. Operator and Pragmata go for $199.

It also irks me that I cannot buy a single user license for Sohne, but a minimum of a 5 user license.




Individual personal users just aren't type foundaries like Klim's target market. They want to land large businesses who use their typefaces as their dedicated brand font - and the pricing reflects that potential value.

I agree though that they've missed out on an opportunity to land individual personal use. They've just slapped their standard license on it, and didn't think much about it.
