On a scale of 1 to 10, how effective are the funky dyslexia typefaces?
Actually curious about this myself.
Personally with ADHD and some 'tism I do have difficulty with reading / might have a bit of dyslexia but I don't find them improving my ability to read longer texts any better as "my eyes get fatigued" (don't know how to explain it). What does help myself is larger text, shorter paragraphs and larger line spacing.

Most actually hinder my ability to read by being distractingly ugly. That might be the adhd tho
…and looping on the same phrase 3 times and still not being able to realise of what you just read
Or you’re listening to a podcast and space out a few seconds. Then you skip back to listen again and zone out again. Rinse and repeat until you don’t care anymore.
yeah its annoying as heck. but i see it as clarifying author intent for a given story arc
