- vz8 7y agoAgreed. After Iosevka, other fonts have felt ... unwieldy. Link for reference: https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka Re: "SS04" d1egoaz is referencing Stylistic Set 04, illustrated here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/be5invis/Iosevka/master/images/stylesets.png https://raw.githubusercontent.com/be5invis/Iosevka/master/im... In addition to the original version of the font above, there is a patched version with powerline icons (and much more) built in: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-fonts/Iosevka https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-... which is very handy for emacs/vim modelines.
- cjbprime 7y agoI've even switched to using the proportional Iosevka Aile for programming, here's someone else's screenshot from the last time it was mentioned on HN: https://i.imgur.com/LdzBmpx.png https://i.imgur.com/LdzBmpx.png
- indemnity 7y agoFor me, it's the fact that I can create a custom build of Iosevka with preferred weights that look good in the different font rendering systems: Native macOS, Electron (VS Code), Java (IntelliJ). All need different weights to end up looking about the same on the same system. And then being able to turn on/off ligatures, tweak some glyphs. It's hard to give that up.
