>>106928357for me, it's droid sans mono. i use a variant with a slashed zero, it's easy to find
>>106928357on my desktop I use Adwaita Mono, on my laptop Menlo, both look good.Needed a change after years of JetBrains Mono

>>106928357You mean DejaVu Sans Mono?https://dejavu-fonts.github.io/
I don't like monospace. It looks uggo.
>>106928357Go Mono: https://go.googlesource.com/image/+/refs/heads/master/font/gofont/ttfsPure win.
>>106928357It's the best for 1080p poorfags (for which it was designed for), on 4k there are better options
>>106929968if your font needs 4k to look good, it's not a good font
>>106928357adwaita mono
i'm not poor, so pic
>>106929990Every font needs 4k to look good. You have to be blind not to notice how bad some characters look on 1080p

>>106930110As if ClearType could make 7px tall characters look good. Keep dreaming and enjoy your aoc $70 monitor
>>106930270cleartype can make fonts look like bitmap fonts. pixel-perfect bitmap fonts can look great.bitmap fonts are the og programming fonts. extremely smooth curves is only one possible aesthetic and not objectively better.
>>106928357Ubuntu Sans Mono

>>106930304>bitmap fontspoorfag cope
>>106928357Loonix: Ubuntu Sans Mono / Adwaita Mono Windows: Cascadia Mono / Consolas macOS: SF Mono / Menlo / Monaco use the default ones provided by your OS, you don't need anything else.
Segue UI
>>106928357Hasklighttps://github.com/i-tu/HaskligIt's meant for Haskell, but it looks real nice on other languages too with the ligatures and just the general letter shapes.

>>106928357Where to download a high-quality copy of Consolas for GNU/Linux that isn't pozzed to death by retarded "free" font forgeries?
>>106928357Don't know which is the best, but I like Hermit.
>>106930902Extract it from the Windows ISO.

>>106928357IBM Plex Mono, preferably ligaturizered.
>>106928500This. It's not great but it's the least bad one.
Cascadia Mono NF variant. The cursive for some part of the code looks very good.Not Cascadia Code, ligatures are for faggots.
>>106930563come on design is not usually a codemonkeys best suit but this is horrendousaverage freetard font btw. there are some outliers but they are usually made by semi business projects like libbie or traced over better stuff like in the case of inter which is just SF PRO
>>106929776thisi also really like picrel
>>106931990>TypewYiteY
>>106932355Terrible looking 4s.
>>106932556Yeah, that’s pretty bad.“New” does not always mean better, especially in something ancient like fonts.A lot of these new fonts are just striving to be different in some way to the already well-established principles.I’ve used most of these fonts, the #1 was MobaFont from MobaXTerm, which is actually a hacked Menlo.IBM Plex is not terrible, but the ‘l’ was a non-starter.The IBM font for the 3270 terminal actually has readability science behind it and remarkably good for its day. The high-persistence phosphors and the CRT give bitmapped fonts a readability edge since it works a bit like “dot gain” on printed pages.It can probably be simulated on very high resolution monitors, but generally it’s not as good and I prefer a modified 10x20 on low grade monitors (and sit back a bit from the monitor) as cleartype shenanigans look blurry. They *are* blurry.Bitmaps for lcd monitors was clearly more readable unless you have something over, say, 300 DPI.

>>106928357>CTRL-F>No Fira code mentionedcome on guys https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode
I like fira code, together with fira sans it's arguably the best thing mozilla has ever shat out
Berkeley Mono

>>106933920fira code is top tier. surprised seeing no one else mentioned it too.

Anyone have MonoLisa Complete for a poorfag?
>>106932556These scribblings make absolutely no sense.Where are the inconsistent serifs and the inconsistent roundings?

>>106928357Iosevka. As long as basically every other monospace font insists on being this fucking large, there won't be any contest.
>>106928357JuliaMono
>>106939199came here to post this, only font that's been able to replace Consolas for me
>>106928357my own version of Letter Gothic with the zeroes slashed which I edited in FontForge *adjusts glasses*
>>106936475>>106928409how can you like droid it when 0 O look the same? >>106928357how can you like consolas when l and 1 look the same?
>>106928357i still use this to maintain formatting

>>106935952Purchase it.
>>106930912>skb_orphandoes that function return a mesugaki?
Jetbrains mono or fira code. Jetbrains mono conforms to a pixel grid a bit better so I prefer it for low res
>>106942756mesugaki these nuts
>>106935952Snoop around on soulseek, I'm eepy so I can maybe add a catbox tomorrow>>106942432Rope, now
Jetbrains mono (aka Gitlab mono)
>>106935952SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
>>106942233it's clearly a terminal font and not supposed to be used for programming
>>106944258Most editors for programming are either in a terminal or designed to look like a terminal. Plus, this thread is asking the best monospace font, not the best programming font.
>>106928357>Best ??? font?IBM Plex.
PKMN Gameboy font is best monospace font

why has it never been beaten?
>>106945811what is it?
proggyhttps://github.com/bluescan/proggyfonts
>>106930003Also my favourite. Although there is a free one now with those curly italics as well, which i like and sometimes prefer. https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/
>>106928357comic mono
>>106945622Is it with or without ligatures?
>>106934184not a fan of the notch in the ythe @ and that hollow-slashed zero are pretty cool tho
>>106942953>eepymaybe YOU should rope now, tranny
>>106928384Use comic code! I'm sure an anon here can link you to a zip somewhere!
>>106928357ClearAlign 4
>>106934184Why most fonts use dotted zero instead of slashed zero? Nobody wrote it with pen and paper
>>106934184Nah I like this actually, it's monospaced and the characters do not become differentiable until they reach a very low size. Lowercase L and 1.Monospaced is good so it formats nicely in code. Then the only problem is probably the symbols which are not aligned to represent the original ascii char design for it's integer representation.Personally I like the null terminator \0 in a file to be represented with an actual character \0 which corresponds to the integer index 0, then also EOF to be represented with an EOF.Berkeley Mono is one of the nicest fonts I've ever seen. Free fonts I'd say consolas even though there is ambiguity for some characters and some other characters not listed.
>>106930229Brother
>>106948197This actually confuses me personally. I think the line is better for obvious reasons being that at a smaller size, the line allows the 0 to be more differential from an O at lower size.
Verdana is my second favorite free one.
FiraCode was very good, but it needs to be installed.
