PS: There are resources I cannot entirely share due to legality. For me they are legal, for others they might not be. This list is cleaned up of those. An example is I have a link to a lot of anime fonts to use in Jitai (which I setup), but font downloading may be copyright infringement in your country.

Also, the WK forums wouldn’t let me post the link
