I have a confession to make... I code in Comic Sans (dtinth.github.io)

Seriously, though, Comic Sans was originally designed to be legible at the smallest possible font size, and the lack of hard lines makes it easier to read!

I've heard Comic Sans is easier for dyslexic people to read.

There's a free typeface made specifically for dyslexic people.
OpenDyslexic typeface: https://opendyslexic.org/

There's also Dyslexie which is another dyslexic typeface but costs money. https://www.dyslexiefont.com/
