I found myself down a YouTube rabbit hole once of people one-upping each other by making segmented displays with fewer and fewer segments and seeing who could use the least and still have it be decipherable for all numbers

Only with a rectangular 8. Doesn’t work for a ‘real’ 8. This solves that issue.
12 0 ReplyExcept you have to turn the thing on its head for some numbers which I consider a worse tradeoff.
15 0 Replywatch the video linked in another comment. There are circle based 7 segment displays, if you realy need those curves.
i can see from how you did 'real' that 8, that i don't need to remind you that there are no real 🖐️✌️🖕 :)

I argue that when presented with 9 normal looking numbers, the o is not an acceptable alternative to 0
30 0 ReplySo many fonts just do whatever to be different and stand out from the crowd, but all it does is making it easier to avoid them
8 0 ReplyIt just looks like a lowercase 0. Lowercase digits often look better anyway.

You can make every digit 0-9 with a boxy 8. Look at any 7 segment display.

I want a clock that illuminates like this, but I guess it'd need to be able to flip to really do it with just a 4 and 8.
14 0 ReplyIt wouldn't need to flip if you just make a symmetrical upsidedown 4 on the topside of the 8.

I never write 4 that way, though
6 0 ReplyMe neither. I also cross my 7's.
4 0 ReplyFunny, I do box top 4's but don't cross my 7's
My 9's also have a tail pointing straight down though

Arrange a high density led strip in this layout, the individually addressable ones. Then you’ve got a new digit display style
