For some reasons, I've found that good, old, Verdana (as used on this very HN) is the most editor/writer friendly. IMHO of course.

- SturgeonsLaw 4y agoVerdana is the font of the New Millennium and I will not entertain competing suggestions
- quesera 4y ago> Verdana (as used on this very HN) Hm. If Verdana is the render font for you here on HN, I believe that's that's all about your browser config, and nothing about HN.
- vikingerik 4y agoHN does specify Verdana, so that's what you'll see unless the browser is overriding that somehow. See https://news.ycombinator.com/news.css https://news.ycombinator.com/news.css
- quesera 4y agoOops, you are quite right! I do override it, for more than ten years. That's what I get for posting without sanity checking myself.
- kristiandupont 4y agoI used to use it as well. I stopped because the spaces are too small for my liking. It worked when I was using 4 spaces for indentation but now the more or less agreed-upon standard is 2 (for JS/TS which I mostly write). I wish I could create a custom version with a larger space.
- layer8 4y agoI fully agree, but sadly its character set is rather limited in terms of Unicode characters.
