Is it wrong that I genuinely enjoy coding with Comic Mono set as my font? Comic Mono is the monospaced version of Comic Sans.

@ivanodin: It seems that's the case for most fonts that are "irregular", such as open dyslexic, where every letter is completely different from another · 6 months ago

@averphos comic sans looks bad when it’s smoothed out, but turning off anti-aliasing makes it look nice. · 6 months ago

Never really understood the hate Comic Sans gets anyways. Unjustified pile-on. · 6 months ago

I saw a video on youtube explaining that this font is actually easier to read and also good for people with dyslexia because it's easier to tell one letter from another since they don't follow a pattern. · 6 months ago

Honestly there's more than a few "novelty" monospace fonts out there that actually work pretty well. One of my favorites is Monocraft which is based on the Minecraft font. · 6 months ago

What ever works! I've been using Liberation Mono for that lately. Mono is the main thing. · 6 months ago
