I’ve finally found a font that I really like. It’s the JetBrains Mono font family. Very easy to discern characters even when the font size is small. Previously I used to swap between Consolas, Monaco and Roboto Mono. In fact, if the fonts have loaded properly, you’re most probably reading this paragraph with JetBrains Mono enabled.
Thank you so much to the JetBrains team for this wonderful font and for making it free and open source!
My usual font size is set to 14 in VS Code. Comfortable to view for me on both my desktop and my Thinkpad x280 (ubuntu can’t seem to figure out a perfect screen scaling parameter, thus making everything look so tiny at 100% scaling, 125% is a bit bigger for my taste, specially on such a small screen).
