It's weird to see the author talk about "information density" with monospace fonts. Am I missing something, maybe misinterpreting what he means by it?

- Etheryte 4y agoI'd wager the context in which it is used gives a clue: > More compact than this overview’s average but so graceful that I’ll take that and welcome the information density. My guess is they mean how wide or narrow one character is in a given monospace font.
- brundolf 4y agoYeah, that was my best guess too: visual density "Information density" normally means "how much information can fit in a piece of the screen", which is going to be the same for all monospace fonts (at the same font size, anyway)
