A fellow redditor (and @Knochi also, if I'm not mistaken) suggested that we could use kerning to improve the readability.

Maybe kerning pairs are something to look for, but on the other hand the most critical ones seem to be the Y, V, T, L, P, I, not to mention the tape feeding right now is not so precise, so it could be super simple. Just a matter of roughly balancing the negative space between chars.

It should count as a web app option, because the messed characters are part of the charm.
