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?

I once did comic sans for a while because I am not highly typographically sensitive and wanted to mess about, but I usually like a mono serif typeface for the terminal, most recently Noto.
I think I'm using Iosevka in the terminal at the moment, although it's maybe a bit too narrow for my tastes. For GUI I use San Francisco Pro (Apple font)
Edit: now trying Plex Mono in the terminal and I like it. It feels more like a "normal" font.
For me my favourite monospace fonts are B612 Mono, Oxygen Mono, and Fira Code/Mono. Currently I use B612 in vscodium and Oxygen in the terminal
^ this is the correct choice.
This is it right here. Most comfortable font I've ever used.
I'm constantly switching back and forth between Hack and Fira Code.
In my terminal and 99% of what I write? IBM Courier 12. I grew up with a Selectric, moved to use WordPerfect (with the white text on blue background), and still just stick with it. I will tolerate Courier New 12. I get very ticked at Liberation Mono because it's almost okay.
Everything not monospace is some variety of Helvetica.
anybody with 6x13 and tahoma :p
That's actually a really good font
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.
Topaz-NG says hello
For my terminal I use roboto mono nerd fonts.
Caskaydia Cove for me. Because "Cascadia" is a reserved font name in Windows for some reason.
misc fixed
Monaco Ligaturized Nerd Font
Noto Sans for the UI and Lilex Nerd Font for the terminal.
I use Cascadia Code/Mono from Microsoft because I'm degenerate
been rocking suse's font recently.
Mononoki for terminal, ubuntu for gui
Fuck Ubuntu.
Debian with open dyslexic font.
I'm aware of this study, and I doubt their conclusions because of such a small sample size.
The font helps me, so I use it. Someone went through the trouble of making it, and other people use it. It must help others as well.
