I…don’t hate it? Why am I not horribly offended by this?

Oh no, I was ready to pick up my pitchfork, but that is super legible. Brb, I need to go take a look at myself in the mirror...

I didn't want to wake up and start liking comic sans, God damn

I came here to get mad but comic sans monospaced looks really good. I'm impressed. I might switch my IDE to this.

First of all, how dare you

Second of all, how dare you

Third of all, at least it isn't papyrus

This looks way better than it has any right to, I expected to hate this. Now I'm looking at fonts again reevaluating some shit

⚠️ I have reported this post to the proper authorities.

I mean Comic Mono is mentally relaxing and legible so great font of choice

At least you’re using a monospaced one…

I use emojis as variable names

I tried that this morning at work, as a joke.

It was still there when I got off.

I've coded with comic neue https://comicneue.com/ over the last few years. I would definitely recommend it.

Wow, poor comic sans didn’t deserve all the hate it got

Friendship ended with font gatekeeping and dogpiling, accessibility is my new best friend

Oh no now I want to build a whole Arch rice around that font.

...no that's not enough.

we need ComicSansOS

I used to use Ubuntu mono but now I use Jetbrains Mono but damn that comic sans looks better than I'd expect I might even give it a try!

Yeah, I'm surprised how much I like the look of this. I'm into it.

I see serifs. You're a phony! A great big phony!

A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell

Whoever owns this whole server can you ban this guy. This is a crime to humanity

This is cute~! I hated comic-sans when seeing it on lots of tacky corporate and school signs etc. but recently I ironically and then unironically fell in love with its whacky-ness, bold-ness and readability, (I use a Samsung phone, and used PT Mono on the S9, but then future phones blocked custom fonts, so I used one hack-ey Comic-Sans version since my mono ones are so underground no one developed a phone hack - now any font is possible again so I'm using the one below~ )

A few years ago my fav. font became PT Mono, from Google Fonts - cyrilic compatible, it has these angular edges, and swoopy circle curves, so cute <3

THEN there was this font printed on 2011 Pentax Q cameras and lenses that I loved, and couldn't find the original, but there was something very similar, STALKER1 and related similar fonts

PT MONO

STALKER1

My original intention was to come here and proclaim that you're a heretic. Having looked at it for a moment, I think that you're onto something here...

I thought you actually meant the variable width font and I was about to report the post for gore.

That looks sooooooo nice

Who knew? Just make it monospace.

I tried using Comic Mono for coding once after seeing this video about Comic Code. Honestly it was a pretty good experience.

It looks surprisingly decent! Does it support ligatures?

I will forever believe the comic sans hate is one of the internet's seemingly random circlejerks, like hating Imagine Dragons.

You might like to try out Comic Code. Which is a redone version of Comic Mono but more in the style of Comic Neue, while including Programming Ligatures and Powerline etc. (though no logos etc from Nerdfonts so for terminal use you might still need to patch it with the careful option) I am using it and I like it a lot because it is so easy on the eyes like Lexend or Bookerly, but those two are not monospace.

One huge con though, because of the work the author did with redrawing all characters from scratch, it is a font that you have to pay for to use.

Seriously, for coding I use daily Fantasque Sans Mono, which is based on Comic Sans. I love it.

Comic Sans is actually really good for dyslexic people. It's why I usually use Comic Sans or Comic Neue when I print stuff out for my dad.

It's actually very common font for dyslexia

I run my real thoughts through a filter of chatgpt with instructions to make it work appropriate, edit font to comic sans, then vary the grayscale of each individual character before I send out emails to people I hate.

I feel like a whole new world has opened its doors to me. I’m using this tomorrow at work.

pfft! Real devs use wingdings!

If you like that, check out Recursive Sans & Mono

I wouldn't pick it over Fira Code but it has a bit of whimsy to it that reminds me of Comic Mono.

Ngl that is really easy on the eyes. Dammit.

Blatant trolling should be banned! Get the pitchforks everyone! :P

I'm going to try this after trying Intel's new font that's supposed to be made to accommodate for vision impairment.

I don't hate it? If this had ligatures, I would consider actually using it. I use Fira Code Retina for now but I'm always down for more options
