FWIW, the Input Mono family are the best coding and writing fonts I've found over the years, "Inconsolata" being a runner-up.
These days I use Input fonts in Emacs, all terminals, and writing apps like Ulysses, also on iOS. Nothing else comes close in terms of readability.
- ActsJuvenile 9y agoI agree! Fira Code and Input are my top choices, and Inconsolata / Ricty Diminished Discord are pretty close second. I wish Input didn't remove ligatures from their latest release.
- kazinator 9y agoI found out about Consolas by way of Inconsolata. One day I spent an afternoon looking for a better coding font. I liked Inconsolata. When I Googled to find out more about it, I learned it is a knock-off of something that was hiding right under my very nose: Consolas found on Windows boxes. I tried that and found it better. I now have Consolas all over the place. I'm typing in it on Firefox. I have it in Ubuntu right inside Gnome terminal and other places. Thank you, Microsoft!
- Double_a_92 9y agoAgree! Conolas it's the best for me. And it's already there.
- mattdennewitz 9y agothis is exactly right. condensed is my favorite, but there's no wrong answer.
