If you want this style but balanced slightly more utility, I love Codelia [1]. It's my main coding font. It is, however, a paid font. [1] https://tosche.net/fonts/codelia
This font looks so nice, but so expensive! Wish there was a cheaper personal use option.
I've been using a comic sans based mono font now since the last time I saw it on HN (about a year ago based on my receipt). I use a paid version called Comic Code [1] I find it very easy to read as well as fun. I had similar feelings about using Monaco in the past. I find it personally makes programming easier on the eyes and enjoyable. I remember reading the font is similar to the letters that are taught in kinderga…

Another Comic Code user here, although I only bought it because I didn't know about these free alternatives which look just as good. It seriously reduces eyestrain and makes me more efficient. First thing I install on any new computer!

Begging the question? It appears to be an opinion, and it is definitely not an argument.
Start of thread: > I actually really like Comic Sans and that style of font. Don't understand the haters! Then you replied saying among other things that its use is inappropriate in many contexts. But that’s circular. why is it deemed inappropriate?
While we're in this thread suggesting comic-style monospaced fonts, I can recommend Monaspace Radon: https://monaspace.githubnext.com/ (go down to variants, it's 4th) It actually works! I actually really like Comic Sans and that style of font. Don't understand the haters!

I don't know if I'm unique or something, but Radon is extremely painful for me to look at and makes everything harder to read. It makes me feel like I'm dyslexic or something. I currently use Fira Code and find that very easy to read and look at.
It’s not just you. A few weeks ago I saw the “noble gas” fonts here on HN and gave them a try, ended up going back to JetBrains Mono. Still haven’t found one that can reliably displace it—even my prior daily driver, Fira Code!
I use APL386 as my daily font, has some comic sans vibe but has a simpler and cleaner look imo https://abrudz.github.io/APL386/
