DejaVu is one of my favorites, and it is odd to not see it included. Input Mono [1] by David Jonathan Ross is what I use these days. It's very similar to DejaVu, but I like it better because its geometry is a little rounder. DejaVu's "m" is very narrow, and it has fewer serifs (l, i, etc.), but it also has a serif version for those who want that (it's still very "sans"). It comes in many weights and has a... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Seems like in modern times, on modern systems, we can move beyond monospaced fonts for code. I have recommended this many times here, but I use a proportional coding font: Input Sans https://input.djr.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Yes I ran into problem with distinguishing between ; and : as well on this monospace font. I'll say it was fun to try it and I used it for awhile but it isnt suitable for coding purposes. Im much more happy now with a highly customizable font like Input[0] where I can make it as wide or as narrow as I like it to be and also customize the various characters [0]: https://input.djr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Does your browser have a "Reader" mode? There are font systems that target code and aren't monospace. An example is Input: https://input.djr.com/ - https://input.djr.com/preview/ The niche seems to be people who like to code without monospace, or who present code without monospace, e.g. In slides or in blog posts. Or if you want typographical consistency between non-code and code, as I understand you are suggesting. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

I’ve used Ligaturizer [2] to update the font to include ligatures. I believe the ligatures are even taken from FiraCode itself. I wonder how it’s fitting it to the width of a character as it’s much narrower, but still monospaced. - [1] https://input.djr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

Pycharm's defaults are a little meh IMO. I threw a font with font ligatures at it like 4 years ago and never looked back. Source: over 3 years ago

If we are throwing font recommendations here, I favour [Monoid](https://larsenwork.com/monoid/), I love its glyphs and look. But some years ago I installed [Victor Mono](https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/) as a kind of practical joke on myself (it has _italics_, usually enabled for comments in the language you use in your editor, but of course that's up to where you want them) and I found it's actually extremely... - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

Another favourite font is Monoid as it has extra-large punctuation marks and operators, apertures are large to help make characters more distinguishable, and ascenders and descenders are kept short and because it’s open source you can even tweak it to your tastes if you like. Get Monoid. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

Since everyone is posting their suggestions, a couple of years ago I settled on the open-source Monoid font with ligatures. https://larsenwork.com/monoid/ I find it that it's very easy to get used to ligatures, and I find them very satisfying to look at. They're code-specific replacement characters that combine your == into a single long double bar, or -> and => into a neat little arrow character, and so on (link... - Source: Hacker News / almost 4 years ago

My criteria as well. I've had good success with Monoid for this reason. Link here. Source: almost 4 years ago
