Mine is

It is a very minimal clean looking monospace font with support for ligatures. What is yours ?
Cascadia Code is my go to
I’ve been trying a new font every few months for years - and then I discovered Intel One Mono:
https://github.com/intel/intel-one-mono
Hard to describe what I like about the font but it just feels perfect.
Jetbrains Mono (Nerd Font). There is no other option for me.
likewise, with ligatures!
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 very small fraction of a cent / hour of use by now.
I’ve been liking Commit Mono recently. Otherwise, I usually use JetBrains Mono
I use comic mono for the meme, but i also like courier and old school terminal looking fonts
Whatever my distro defaults to when i put mono in suckless terminal’s config.h
I like Hack. I’m not huge on ligatures.
I’m too old to die on any hills these days but mainly if it:
- is mono spaced
- doesn’t change characters to something other than what they literally are
Then I’m happy
I use Iosevka Nerd Font. It looks nice and has various extra glyphs and ligature support.
Consolas is perfect
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 😞
Was reading about Monaspace earlier. How would you compare it against something like Fira Code?
Try this site and pin the ones you like to compare really easily. You can also change the code to whatever you like.
I think my main is Hack, though I really like Pragmata and Gintronic. Jetbrains and Firacode are pretty cool, though I much prefer the first three to either, and Jetbrains to firacode.
One thing I really like about Hack and Gintronic is the very laid back parentheses. They don’t try to enclose the characters inside them like some fonts. They’re both very readable, hack is compact, gintronic is more extended but it has this feeling of everything being a logical block. Pragmata I really like but hard to actually compare it because it’s not on the site I shared above. Pragmata is I think as good as hack and gintronic, and it has the added benefit of having ligatures and nerd font glyphs built in! I’d probably prefer hack or gintronic overall if they had these features but they don’t.
Thank you for sharing link to the site! I have found 4 new terminal fonts to try.
