I feel like that is a myth. Most people I know use monospace fonts for programming.

- tiffanyh 3y agoFor programming, correct. But long form essays - it's super difficult. Braille Institute is an authority research group in this space and they development their own font that achieves maximum readability. That font is NOT a monospace font, because the found it too difficult to read in long-form. It's a proportional font. https://brailleinstitute.org/freefont https://brailleinstitute.org/freefont
- aflag 3y agoThat font seems to be designed for low vision readers. I'm not sure if you can extrapolate that to people without any sort of vision issues. I mean, I can read the essay just fine, and I don't find it particularly hard to read or anything. If anything, given that I'm already used to reading monospaced fonts all day, I think I can probably read it faster than if it was a font that I'm less familiar with.
