I dished out the cash for MonoLIsa a few months ago bc for some reason a bunch of the other fonts just felt off to me. If I had to describe it, I'd call it "cramped". It has a ton of customization too, which is super nice. Can't say it made me a 10x engineer the same way my gamer rug made me global elite in csgo, but def reduced the cognitive load of programming for long hours, every single day.

I have a personal list for this lol. - CommitMono (for just getting things done) - Liga SFMono Nerd (for terminal stuff) - Iosevka Comfy (Normal/Wide Duo) - Jetbrains Mono - Monaspace Neon (I like this for vscode terminal) Rotate between these. All are good.

@henryvaneyk3769 2 ай бұрын

Inconsolata is my favourite. Been coding for 34 years, so my eyesight is not so great anymore. Fonts matter a lot to me. The most important part is that a coding font must show a very visible difference between 0 (zero) and O (uppercase o). And I absolutely hate ligatures.

@bronzekoala9141 2 ай бұрын

Call me satan but I actually use a proportional (non mono) font for coding (the ubuntu font). I found that I can read code much faster in it which outweighs the occasional misalignment of stuff. Also it saves some horizontal screen space. Misalignments don't even happen that often because it's rare that lines are horizontally aligned by the number of characters. Mostly it's just tabs or repeating sequences at the start of the lne which occupy the same length anyway.

MonoLisa is really good, (there's a free trial variant you can download if you dig into the site a bit more.) You missed Operator Mono (also paid). And the Monaspace family (which has some cool ideas).
