From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Iosevka is so great. Not everyone likes the narrow look. I've tried other fonts a couple of times since I stumbled on it a good handfuls of years ago, but I always come back.

You can always compile your own Iosevka and adjust several pieces, I have done that selecting what I consider the best pieces a long time ago.

The compiled font lives in an easy to access internal webserver that I just grab from every computer I use (=
