Can anyone identify the font? I tried whatthefont but it's only giving me paid fonts, I'm pretty sure this is a free font but can't seem to find it. edit: thanks for the answers

I think it may be Noto Sans Mono.

>I tried whatthefont

Has that website ever worked for anyone?

Typewalk Mono 1915 according to the FontSquirrel font identifier

Looks pretty similar to me, and being a monospaced font makes sense as it's being used by a dev.

Yes but mostly to narrow the solution space. I usually end up comparing glyphs from the subset.

That's definitely wrong. The "r" glyph has no top-right curve or serif, whereas Typewalk Mono 1915 has an exaggerated curve. The photos' s glyphs have open apertures, but Typewalk has closed apertures (curled-in stroke ends).

Yes, he surprisingly even mentions it:

> I do this by using the same number of characters with a monospace font.

Thanks!

I think this one fits the most. It's also a popular Google font, so would make sense for a developer to use it. Thanks!

Timers are great, I've been using them for more and more things lately. I still want to make a proper server-backed app one day that syncs any timers between devices though. I often enable them in my phone but then put it away when working on something on my PC and the widget in the app would be a good idea. Maybe even a plugin for my editor!
