#92We have a group chat with 20 random people sending just Comic Sans spotted in the wild. Just pictures, nothing else. Its the best thing that ever happened to me.

Re: Comic Mono
#93I've yet to find a programming font better than Ubuntu Mono, but I definitely want to try this as it looks really nice. What's the difference between this and Comic Shanns Mono, though? There is a nerd font[0] available for the latter.

$15.50 for something you use every moment of your working life? It's not that much. It's fine to use free versions instead, but maybe let's stop asking for freebies from folks who make their living that way, especially from Indy folks. (Badger your average megacorp for free stuff for all you want, they'll find ways to extract money somehow)
$30 is the bundle that seems minimally useful. Does it work on all OSes?

Hopefully your OS of choice supports one of those.

It is all relative, if you want the set of normal, italic, bold and bold italic you need the 80$ package. A lot of people seems to use a coding font, wear off a bit of it or want a new one just to make a small change and have diversity. It an expense you might not be ready to spend for something you may not be 100% sure you will want to use for more than a couple of months. He has a set of demo fonts but from what I…
30$ for the 12 most common variants.
Only for Comic Code. Codelia's cheapest bundle is 80$

> $15.50 for something you use every moment of your working life? $16 to upgrade my life? well worth it. $16 to own something that I'd need to carry around for the rest of my life in a file, or track a download code for, and configure into every new system I boot up, and... nah, that's buying a responsibility creatives out there: you are using and benefitting from the free open source internet where other creatives g…
True. The only ethical way to obtain money is by working for a corporation. Corporations are the only entities that legitimately can sell anything.
As the common saying goes, no ethical consumption without capitalism!

Font creators once again treating TempleOS users like they don't exist? Color me shocked.
Jokes aside, this is the only font I've ever paid for, and I use it for all my text editing across Linux/MacOS/Windows with no issues.

#98While 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!
My daily driver for the last year or so. But it really is an acquired taste. Some colleagues love it and now use it as well, some hate looking at it and comment on it every time I share my screen.

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?
With or without the apparent misidentification of authorship, it is not clear to me what could be seen as circular here.
Re: Comic Mono
#100I wanted to hate this, but it's actually not horrible at all? Looks nice just as a regular sans-serif font even - turns out the issue with comic sans is the letter spacing?
I've tried Operator Mono, SF Mono, Ubuntu, Roboto, Consolas etc.
Switched daily, weekly, monthly..
But I've been using Comic Mono for 2 years now (SW developer) and forgot all about it. The mark of a truly great font.
