The way they talk about it makes it sound like they invented the written word, but that notwithstanding the fonts actually look really nice in my opinion.

Love Neon. Very easy to read.

Looks nice! Is this going to become the default font in GitHub and VSCode?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

No support for this yet in VSCode it seems.

Fonts are an OS thing. If you don't have support for it, that's because you haven't downloaded it yet.

Iosevka offers too much customization to leave it—especially removing ligature abuse.

I personally use JetBrainsMono, it's my favourite. What do you guys think?

[–] FoolHen 2 points 8 months ago

I love that one. I'm currently using Google sans mono which is great as well.

This seems neat, too bad it requires IDE support. Hope JetBrains IDEs support it soon.

More fonts is nice, I'll give it a try

i don't see ligatures in apps i use, like notepad++, Windows Terminal, Notepad and Notepads, also shame it doesn't support powerline features

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I'm all about MonoLisa, but I'll give this a look
