Mine is mononoki
It is a very minimal clean looking monospace font with support for ligatures. What is yours ?
Recursive Mono. It’s freaking cool. I like ligatures so it’s got them, it’s nice on the eyes, and it’s playful without being too playful.
Bonus points if you use Semicasual.
+1 Recursive!
Times New Roman
Maybe a little Fixed Width Comic Sans?
Variable width if you’re really hardcore
Been using Input Mono for the past 5 or so years.
I discovered comic mono a couple months ago and I’ve never looked back. It’s the perfect font
Using Cascadia Code as main font and trying out Monaspace as font for comments and git lens text.
I bought Pragmata Pro about 5 years ago and still love it.
For people like me, who don’t feel cashing out money for a font - Iosevka is a pretty decent opensource clone of PragmataPro. But the OG still looks better to me somehow.
I look at it basically all day at work, the 200€ are are down to a fraction of a cent / hour of use by now.
I use SauceCode Pro (variant of SourceCode Pro with nerdfonts stuff). I’ve given up on changing it because everytime I do I find stuff that’s “non-standard” in the fonts I test and it bugs the hell out of me. @ signs are the absolute worst offenders, which is weird because they have a very uniform look everywhere that’s not a specialized “programming” monospace font.
The standard @ symbol has four horizontal lines and worse they’re meant to be the sides of a circle.
That’s really hard to do in a fixed width font at small sizes… and most code fonts (including Source Code Pro) cheat and modify the symbol. Some of them do that better than others.
Yeah I guess you’re right. Probably just seen the Source Code Pro one so many times that I stopped being annoyed with it.
Should try exposing myself to the Jetbrains Mono font until I get used to that instead, then I won’t have to fiddle with that part of the IDE settings.
I’m a big fan of Adobe’s Source Code Pro.

Hey I use the same font! Didn’t know it supported ligatures, is this feature new? I use the nerd font version so I might have to update.
I think it had support for a while. I guess it needs to be enabled on the editor.
No. Ligatures aren’t being added github.com/madmalik/mononoki/issues/29
Cascadia Code is what I’m using
I have a custom TrueType font embedding the UCS bitmap fonts so I can use it with modern font renderers which dropped support for those old font formats.
That’s a very nice one! I also enjoy programming ligatures.
I use Cartograph CF. I like to use the handwriting style for built-in keywords. Those are common enough that I identify them by shape. The loopy handwriting helps me to skim over the keywords to focus on the words that are specific to each piece of code.
sample Haskell code with a handwriting font variant for the words “let”, “in”, and “where”
I wish more monospace fonts would use the “m” style from Ubuntu Mono. The middle leg is shortened which makes the glyph look less crowded.
Cartograph looks good. Ubuntu mono is also a great font but I guess it doesn’t support ligatures.
I started using comic sans mono ironically, but have come to realize that it legit is easy to read.
Liberation Mono. It’s probably not the best out there, but I like it well enough.
comic sans
I use comic mono for the meme, but i also like courier and old school terminal looking fonts
Sonysketch, I’m mildly dyslexic and it’s surprisingly easy for me to read, and looks good too.
Monospace, openDyslexic, Noto Sans Regular
re: mononoki - what’s the license, I don’t see it in the github.
TYVM
Cascadia Code is my go to
Consolas is perfect

I use Iosevka Nerd Font. It looks nice and has various extra glyphs and ligature support.
