Your typeface of choice won't matter as long as you use a low-dpi shitter monitor[1]. But if I had to pick one, it would be the undisputed king of monospace fonts, berkeley mono.

Jesus Christ, can't believe redditors actually pay that much for a font.
It barely even looks distinct from other modern monospace fonts.

Sweet, but at this point you should actually have tried Iosevka itself (without reconfiguring).

Some of its design decisions might work better for you than Berkeley's.

>>108925726
I guess people who use it on websites / in books.

>>108934862
Websites should use the users default font.
If your website sets the font to anything other than sysmtem-ui, you should be hanged.

LMAO if you're not going to get commercial use rights, literally why the fuck would you pay for it?
On that note, why would you pay for this at all, it doesn't even look good.
>>
>>108936473
to use in my IDE and terminal emulators that I look at for 8+ hours a day
at any rate it’s very clear and readable on my monitor
>>
>>108925672
just steal the font and change a single pixel. fuck this guy
>>
>>108936490
But you don't need commercial use, so you can simply get it for free. Why would you pay for it? It's a retarded deal. If I'm gonna pay for something, I expect to be able to actually use it for more legally.

Google Fonts has almost 2,000 different distinct font families you can legally download and use for free.

They have a selection of monospaced fonts you can check out.

Exactly this. Also, fonts cannot be copywritten, though the font file itself can. You just need to recreate it based on the visuals and boom, free font.
