I use Iosevka Nerd Font. It looks nice and has various extra glyphs and ligature support.
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.
I’ve used IBM Plex Mono for a long time. Currently giving github’s new Monaspace a try.
IBM Plex Mono is such a fancy, refined font. The line spacing is a bit too high for my liking though 😞
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
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.
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.
Terminus.
To be honest, I don't care. If I dislike a default font somewhere, I change it, but there's no a favorite one. The font must be readable, that's all.
Iosevka SS14
I use comic mono for the meme, but i also like courier and old school terminal looking fonts
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.
Cascadia Code is what I'm using
re: mononoki - what's the license, I don't see it in the github.
comic sans
Cascadia Code is my go to
I started using comic sans mono ironically, but have come to realize that it legit is easy to read.
Monospace, openDyslexic, Noto Sans Regular
I settled on Go Mono, a few years back after going through a list of commonly recommended code fonts, and picking the one that I liked best. While I usually do not program in Golang, I still find the this font to be well suited for any programming language.
Liberation Mono. It's probably not the best out there, but I like it well enough.
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.
