You’ll have to pry Comic Code from my cold dead hands!
My poor eyes 😂
I might non ironically start using this
Somehow beautiful and terrible at the same time…
I’ve been using this for two days now on high contrast mode in Jetbrains IDEs I love it!!
Edit: wait I lied, I’m using Comic Mono, same idea though
I have Comic Mono too, it’s great. I’m using Comic Code for ligature support.
Ooo might have to check that out
I personally like the Jetbrains Mono font
Yup, that’s what I use simply out of not changing too many settings when I install an IDE.
damn my eyes are feasting rn
It looks gorgeous
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
Based on my own experience and years of spectating flamewars I figure somewhere between 40-80% of any programmer’s aesthetic preference is familiarity. I use Liberation Mono (probably because it was the default on some ancient version of CentOS or something) and I doubt it’d be anyone’s first choice, but every now and then I’ll come across something with its own defaults and it just bugs me.
On topic, the most obvious difference between Intel One and Iosevka is the radically different aspect ratio.
Yeah I think the aspect ratio is one of the main problems for me, which is funny because I’ve heard people being surprised when they saw my terminal window that my font is so narrow :p
I still find Fira Code and Meslo to be better. Nothing beats these 2 fonts.
For me Dejavu sans mono is a really good mono font, and it’s Foss 🙂
For my taste it looked a little too wide. Not as good as JetBrains Mono.
+1 for JetBrains mono. Been using it for years now.
No dotted 0. Boo!
Iosevka Term Slabfor life.
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.
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.
Love Fira Code with ligatures
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.
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.
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.
The second time I heard about Victor Mono today. I might download it today.
I have a feeling you’ll enjoy Iosevka then.
Every time I’ve seen Iosevka it’s looked super narrow, which I appreciated it more because it’s different than I actually wanted to use it. I’ve never seen this site before though and I think it may have sold me on installing it tomorrow.
Looks pretty good. I don’t think anything will end up shaking me loose from hasklig, but more choice is pretty much never a bad thing.
Cool font, I’ll have to give it a try.
