Notable free super-families
Riccardo Sartori commented on Riccardo Sartori's entry in Free Font Lists
Just an oversight. But you should be able to add it yourself if you think it needs to be listed. A number of families in this list are already listed in either one or both “best of” lists of serif or sans serif free typeface families. -
What I meant instead of it being listed once under super family it got two separate mentions.

I guess not strange since Alegreya has both. But it is a super superfamily, as good as any paid one. Background: I redesigned our website when our new cost-cutting CEO decided to move our design department from Adobe to free alternatives. So I had to move our website from Mrs/ Mr Eaves. Keeping with the cost-cutting approach, I tried many fonts, settling on Alegreya. At first, I thought I'd be giving up a lot, but I was shocked when I realized I PREFERRED to free font to the well-regarded paid one. As an FYI, I also tried Source, PT and Merriweather and found them okay, but less versatile. I more or less agree with the writer's grades.

Strangely Alegreya is entered under sans and serif.

Hey, what about Alegreya? To me, it's the best free superfamily of all -- there's serif and sans serif, with proper bold, italic and small caps for both. The letterforms are beautiful, especially the serif at large sizes. I've been using them to design a series of posters at work & I've transitioned to using it on our website, catalog and to save on page-view charges. And yet, I've NEVER felt like I'd compromised. And our CEO loves me for it too.... 🙂

Instead of the vertical lines being the same width or thicker than horizontals, a reverse-contrast font has the horizontal lines which are thicker than verticals. This list collects modern designs with this feature, but excluding the highly decorative reverse-contrast designs of the 19th century.-
