Terminus, always, bitmap supremacy
I tried using the Hyperlegible family systemwide but found the 0 glyph too distracting outside of terminal/code cases. As a terminal font, it’s perfection.
Ooo, I might have to put this up against Fira Code at work tomorrow.
For real, a good font.
Open dyslexic or Adys for my broken head
The default font.
Default font: Inter Monospaced font: JetBrains Mono NL (I don’t like ligatures, ask me if you want elaboration)
Noto Sans
I’m a JetBrains Mono fan. And whatever font I use has GOTTA have ligatures. I love ligatures.
Yeah when I went down a terminal config rabbit hole I landed on JetBrains Mono with all the nerd font symbols. Can’t really provide a particular reason I like it over many other fonts, but I just do.
I’m the same way, it just feels right.
I use Fira Code Retina. I like that it is not too light, not too bold. I’m also partial to Cascadia Code and DejaVu Mono.
For the GUI, I use Adwaita Sans in both my GNOME and XFCE computers.
Yep, been using Fira Code for years and I love it.
Fira Code is my answer as well! I’ll use others for some variety, but it’s the favorite I always go back to.
i have been using Ubuntu Fonts for the past years and now every other font is ugly
like why does every font, except ubuntu, have these ugly af corners?
ubuntu font for comparison:

Not a font guy, but isn’t it just mimicking how humans use strokes to write?
It looks nicer, and it’s easier to read for me tbh.
yeah it mimics how humans write on paper, but i’m on a computer
I’ve recently fallen in love the Liberation fonts. For some reason I would always scroll past them in font lists and I don’t know why. I guess I just saw Liberation Serif as a Times New Roman knockoff and dismissed them all because of that, when they’re so much more.
I’ve applied them across the board (including websites) and wow… I was straining my eyes for so long thinking my vision was going, when it turns out it was just bad hinting and kerning all along.
I once did comic sans for a while because I am not highly typographically sensitive and wanted to mess about, but I usually like a mono serif typeface for the terminal, most recently Noto.
I really like Hack for monospace.
I am a big hack fan, I just don’t like to tell people as it’s a stupid name.
What makes it stupid? At least it’s relevant instead of random nonsense names like “noto” “callenda” “amiri” etc (apologies if all these names have rich etymologies)
HELLO I AM HACK NICE TO MEET YOU
Inconsolata LGC with nerd-fonts. I edit all my text and code in Helix, a TUI editor, and having proper support for Cyrillic and Greek is important for me. Also, I like how it looks.
Ubuntu and Adwaita fonts are my favorite
