Why in 2019 do we not have the ability to turn off fonts from inside Photoshop? Why when I make a text layer must I scroll through a never ending list of fonts I do not need. Like Apple Braille? Or fonts in foreign languages that I will never use? Users should be given the option to hide fonts they do not want to see. How hard is that? How did Lorem ipsum place holder text get added as a feature before some better font management was added. I should not be forced into going and trying to delete system fonts from my operating system and risk ruining it.

I so agree, I hate having to scroll through all the fonts. I already have an app for that, I don't need them all in PS

Then I end up turning the favorites into a list that filters out the crap fonts instead of using it for the intended purpose of showing me my favorites.

As someone that uses a lot of fonts that is not a good solution. Then I end up turning the favorites into a list that filters out the crap fonts instead of using it for the intended purpose of showing me my favorites.

Essentially breaking a feature to solve a glaring oversight in Photoshop. The solution is clear. Adobe needs to get off their butts and add the ability to hide fonts from the main font list.

You can mark your favorites font with a star and filter them. But I am affraid that at the certain point with PS update you will loose your settings so might need to do it again.
