That is usually configurable at the terminal level- for example, both wezterm and ghostty have available configs to control this behavior.
Good to know. I’ve been using ghostty and generally not a fan of the code ligatures (or just too stubborn to adapt!).
Knowing that everything in here is people asking why their font is missing: I highly recommend having a look at [ MAPLE MONO ] (on Github https://github.com/subframe7536/Maple-font ). It has amazing readability, looks nice, is compatible with NF if you use that. I received compliments from people looking over my shoulder for my f'ing font?! Huge shoutout to subframe7536 ^^
Italics turn into cursive... I cannot imagine ever wanting this in my IDE, but that's just me.
This seems bizarre to me, I do not understand the rationale behind it. Can someone enlighten me?

Woa, that's a weird @ in the screenshot in line 6.

It looks like they naively aligned the slant of the leftmost edge at the mid-height of the glyph, which is not the right way to optically align shapes, especially for a symbol with asymmetric curvature (the leading face of the loop leans substantially more than the trailing face). And then in addition to that, a too-wide arrangement when adjoining ("ul", "ll", etc) causes excess dead space around adjoined pairs.
You see this quite strongly in the "null" that appears on line 5 in their example screenshot. The two "l"s both appear to lean more than the "nu", and the "ul" has more internal space than the "nu", and the "ll" has even more than that.
Suggestion: I'd like to have an option to exclude fonts without ligatures from the game. And it seems there are others who don't like ligatures who would probably like to be able to exclude fonts with ligatures. You could also do this for other features like serifs.
Every time something like this comes up I always end up with JetBrains Mono.
Now I can have side-by-side two editors plus a Structure or Project pane at the left in PyCharm while having 120 chars visible in both editors.
Something I never liked about this game is its showing it in your browser at your chosen font size. Chrome (assuming you're using Chrome) draws it a specific way. This does not match how Freetype (using typical tuning) or DirectWrite draws it. Chrome's choices in font renderer tuning and blending makes it kind of split the difference between Windows-style and OSX-style, and isn't native to either. What it should be d…

I don’t like it. It looks amateurish in the same way Comic Sans looks to me. I suppose you’d love this if you also enjoy Comic Sans.
It feels more like Consolas to me.

While we're dropping lesser-known coding fonts, here's my favorite, Lotion [0]. It's cute and playful but also very legible and clean. [0] https://font.nina.coffee/
