#32I wish we had a monospaced version of Comic Neue[0], which is a really nice font!
Re: Comic Code: Monospaced interpretation of the most over-hated typeface
#33I've been using Comic Mono as my primary font for about two years now. I use it for nearly everything; it's my terminal font, and since I spend a large percentage of my time in terminal I see it all the time. It's funny how many strange looks I share my screen with people, but I find it an exceedingly pleasant font to use. I'm even using w3m to view HN, so I'm looking at Comic Mono right now. I checked out the limite…
The readability is much better compared to other fonts, apparently it's also great for people with dyslexia. Personally I'm happy to trade readability for density with Iosevka
I use it to and yeah, I find the readability really good. It's not something I notice consciously, but my theory is the little imperfections in the loops and such make the text easier to scan. The loop in say an 'o' has a slightly different shape than the loop in a 'p'.

Right now my linux desktop uses comic Neue as system font along with comic code as monospace font. It's beautiful.

#35I recently made the jump to Comic Code from having used Fantasque Sans Mono for a few years and I’m quite pleased. My eyesight is pretty poor and my eyes get tired by the end of the day but my terminal remains pretty readable. I do miss the looped ‘k’s from Fantasque Sans Mono though I must admit.

#36I prefer Fantasque Sans Mono ( https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans ) myself, mostly due to its loop-less style variant, but any code that resembles an OpenBSD slide set looks instantly good to me...
Fantasque too and I add another reason: Comic Mono lacks proper support for Spanish.

#37The monospaced version is terrible, my eyes and head hurt from trying to read that. I got a few lines in an got a headache.

Sure, but how does Comic Code compare to the free Comic Mono? Comic Mono is pretty readable.

#39I have always loved comic sans. It's such an unambiguously fun font. I wish I could customise the OSes of today to use it everywhere. But I'm not sure if it will work for code.

#40I've never hated comic sans at all. I think it's an attractive, easy-to-read font.
The problem with it is that it kept being used for inappropriate things, which is annoying and distracting, but that's not a problem with the font itself.
