    I use Fira Code Retina. I like that it is not too light, not too bold. I’m also partial to Cascadia Code and DejaVu Mono.

    For the GUI, I use Adwaita Sans in both my GNOME and XFCE computers.

      Fira Code is seriously awesome. I love how it is delightfully quirky. Not too much, just enough to give it plenty of character without becoming weird, annoying, or hard to read.

      I also really like how it is more wide than most. If I’m supposed to finish all my lines at 80 characters there’s no point in using something that condensed.

      Actually, I would really like to find a similarly non-bland proportional character to use beside it.

        Well, there’s Fira Sans, but I don’t know if it’s what you want. I like to use it for things like slides and titles, and I’ve used it as a GUI typography for some time.

      Fira Code is my answer as well! I’ll use others for some variety, but it’s the favorite I always go back to.

      Caskaydia Cove for me. Because “Cascadia” is a reserved font name in Windows for some reason.

      This is the best font IMO. I used to use source code pro, but I switched to Plex a few years ago and it’s all I want to use now.

    For terminal I currently use JetBrains Mono. I also used Fira Code and Source Code Pro in the past.

    In GUI apps I use Inter right now. Previously used Roboto for a long time.

    I’m a JetBrains Mono fan. And whatever font I use has GOTTA have ligatures. I love ligatures.

      Yeah when I went down a terminal config rabbit hole I landed on JetBrains Mono with all the nerd font symbols. Can’t really provide a particular reason I like it over many other fonts, but I just do.

    I used to use the Ubuntu Font until I found the glory of Recursive.

    Knock knock. Do you have a moment to talk about Recursive font? What about the weighted Recursive Duotone Nerd Font that makes bold and commented sections casual font?
