While I understand the reaction, it’s not exactly constructive and a bit below the standard here. The font/tooling is fully open source, so feel free to remove the ligature table and recompile it yourself.
I personally find the TODO and NOTE ligatures to be a great idea, however I know you’re talking about the common programming ligatures instead.
- vdaea 3y agoI could also create my own fonts with or without ligatures. We are (or at least I am) judging a font by its design. Which is, well, the most important part of it. Are we allowed to do that?
- jasonjmcghee 3y ago> Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. How you said it is specifically against HN guidelines which I bet is why you are getting downvoted.
- vdaea 3y agoWhat would a profound dismissal of ligatures in fonts look like? Maybe I should ask ChatGPT to write some three-paragraph bullshit that says the same thing that "word + emoticon".
- eropple 3y agoYou don't have to be "profound" to make a substantial comment. But as it is, you're being really unpleasant about something that ultimately doesn't matter enough to merit it. (And I don't even like ligatures in programming fonts, I don't use them!)
