      May I ask why? I’m not loving ligatures :[

      I gave Julia’s and Fira’s ligatures a try but no dice, it feels so super counterintuitive 😬

        It’s definitely a personal preference thing. I just think they look cool and make it a bit easier to skim read large sections of code (assuming you have ligatures often in the code). They have lots of examples here: https://github.com/Trzcin/Fira-Code-Nerd

        Anyway, you can still use that font without the ligatures, if that’s not your thing :p

    Thanks for sharing. A good read, the quick comparisons were awesome. I landed on Fira and Hack a while ago and have been happy. Judging by the comparisons in the article, I gotta give JetBrains Mono a try though 🤔

        0xProto looks very nice, thanks! But of course no comparison is complete without Iosevka. And it’s so customizable it won’t be complete even then…

        Here’s the build I use:

          Spoiler alert: you’re the second person to suggest Iosevka, so I just added it to the comparison 🤠👍🏼

          I must say I don’t love it’s narrowness, but it’s really well made !
