Arial, Comic Sans and Times New Roman are the only fonts they know by name. Arial sounds too much like the (woke) mermaid, and comic sans is too geeky. Times New Roman it is!
Designed for newspaper printing, so it’s exceedingly narrow, and it’s also intended for ink which will ‘bleed’ a bit, so the fine details are too fine for high quality prints.
If you’re arranging text into two-inch wide columns and then printing with a high-speed roller, then it might be a good choice.
But since that’s niche and very unlikely, it’s probably a bad choice. It’s also a terrible on-screen font, and since the cost of rendering a web page isn’t meaningfully affected by the size of the glyphs, then there’s no justification for choosing it for web purposes.
I didn’t think anyone liked Times New Roman 💀

When I rule the world the only font allowed will be wingdings.

It’s fine, but Abhaya libre is better. People sleep on serif fonts these days.
Ooh yes that’s lovely
Every font I can change is Abhya Libre. It makes me feel classy. I used to use the Evangelion font, but it has terrible kerning.
