We're currently using Helvetica Neue on top of native font stack, which should be questionned since:

  • Helvetica Neue and Arial are duplicated;
  • quotes around font-family names are unnecessary;
  • add Liberation Sans to ensure Ubuntu users will get a decent Arial fallback, regardless of the browser they're using — see fontfamily.io page about sans-serif;
  • And speaking about Helvetica, should search after webfonts.fonts.com to know if we shouldn't be trying to use local version of Helvetica Neue already?
  • Also, consider using font-synthesis since it could prevent faux-bold for example.

About the useless quotes:

By removing useless quotes, avoid Helvetica Neue + Arial duplication and add Liberation Sans to ensure Ubuntu users gets the most decent fallback they can.
