This looks cool, but I'm not sure it looks practical. Why do I want a pixel-grid typeface for programming?

  I think some people are upset as to how font rendering engines render fonts, so they decided "get rid of that and I will manually place every pixel where I want it".

  Maybe you like being able to see the pixels? That's why I like pixel-looking fonts, anyway...

  Nostalgia.

  It isn't for that, it is a decorative retro font. I think that HTML is a creative medium and that you can have more fun with it than you can with old fashioned desktop publishing programs like Photoshop. This font adds to the toolkit and the possibilities, I will be making a mental note of it.

    The readme specifically says "undefined medium is a free and open-source pixel grid-based monospace typeface suitable for programming, ...". I agree it's decorative, I love the style, but the docs are implying there's a reason you might want this for practical use.
