Programming

I personally like the Jetbrains Mono font

You'll have to pry Comic Code from my cold dead hands!

For me Dejavu sans mono is a really good mono font, and it's Foss 🙂

I've been using Source Code Pro by Adobe for a few years now, which is confusingly named because it's not a paid font.

For my taste it looked a little too wide. Not as good as JetBrains Mono.

It looks alright. I might give it a try. I tested out a bunch of different mono fonts recently and landed on Fira Code. I'm still getting used to ligatures but so far I'm liking it more than I expected.

I don't like fonts where the glyphs look wider than they are tall? In my head I call them 'fat fonts'. IIRC Source Code Pro is like that? I used FiraCode for the longest time but recently migrated to Victor Mono. The Italics haven't warmed on me but the rest of the faces including the Obliques look great.

I still find Fira Code and Meslo to be better. Nothing beats these 2 fonts.

I'm a Fira Code (patched w/ Nerd Font) user, but love to try out a new font every once in a while. This one does look nice. Will have to see about patching it w/ the nerd font glyphs, as my tmux/nvim output is going to look like garbage w/o those.

Something about just looks a little off.

Looks too squished for me, I currently use roboto mono

I like the curly braces (much easier to spot the difference from some other fonts that lack a well defined point).

But I'm still a fan of fira code for generally well done ligatures.

Edit: fira code, not sans.

I’ve been using Hack for the past few years. But no doubt gonna give this a go.

Personally, I still prefer PragmataPro (tho I do admit it is a very expensive font), but this does look pretty good

I've been using Inconsolata

I tried it at work for a few weeks but in the end I went back to Iosevka. Not sure if it’s something with the Intel font, being used to Iosevka, some combination of those, or something completely unrelated, but it’s the only font I can use comfortably on daily basis, after migrating from Operator

I’d like to see a font like this eventually replace the Ubuntu system typeface. There’s a lot of nostalgia and charm in that font, but it’s godawful ugly T_T

I've been using Hack as my font of choice since probably around 2016 I think. I did a close comparison between the 2 after downloading it, and wow! I think this Intel font might finally replace Hack as my programming font of choice. The font does a great job of making all the common character look distinct from each other. I especially notice the parens and braces having some nice detail. I'll have to try it out on actual files, but it looks good so far!
