Awesome video! I just wanted to point something out since a lot of people in the comments are saying something along the lines of "Why would you pay money for a font," when typefaces really take a ton of work by the designer to be read well, give certain feelings, and suit a certain medium well (type is often designed for specific mediums like books or display). Every typeface has a designer behind it, and I feel those designers and their work are often taken for granted. There is nothing wrong with supporting type designers that do really great work!

Comic Sans is not ugly. It's overused, and inappropriately used, and was probably developed on one drunken afternoon, and was developed at a time when it was cool to hate Microsoft, but it's not ugly. Also, Consolas was hands-down the best "serious" monospace font in the era of low DPI monitors on Windows.

[@bjornroesbeke]

The odd shape of the characters makes the text look like a blob of pixels in a sea of darkness. Good for short texts, not for structured code. I like my Liberation Sans Mono font. A little hard on the eyes, perhaps a little old fashioned looking, but it makes my code look like code.

Thought it's gonna be interesting, considering comments saying that he convinced them to buy the font, but All of the points were "It looks comfy" And "It's good for dyslexic people"

[@QuotePilgrim]

The thing about irregular fonts in particular being more readable for dyslexic people is a widely propagated myth. There's research specifically showing OpenDyslexic isn't any easier to read for people with dyslexia than Arial. While certain fonts are more readable, there's nothing that makes a font more readable specifically for people with dyslexia. What makes fonts more readable for those who have dyslexia are exact same things that make it more readable for everyone else. And one thing is way more important for readability than the actual shape of the letters, and that is font size. If you want text to be readable, changing the font helps very little, while making it bigger makes all the difference. In other words, if you want readable text, just make it big.

[@gustafswan]

You are completely correct. Whats even more interesting is that the studies cited by OpenDyslexic that are intended to look like they are supporting the font actually are counter to them. They provide no benefit at all. "Heavier line thickness at the bottom of most characters intended to better anchor letters" is pseudo-science bullshit.

[@cabasse_music]

mononoki. and holy shit, what the fuck, comic code? lets see how far i can get into this. speaking of, the first time i used a mac for programming, i was asking my colleages who pranked me and set my IDE font comic sans? turns out it wasn't comic sans, it was just monaco. 🤢

[@LordHonkInc]

I don't have dyslexia per se (at least I was never officially diagnosed), but my astigmatism makes fonts with lots of parallel lines very uncomfortable to read. Say what you want about Comic Sans and it's derivatives, but it's done a lot of good for many people and I appreciate it for that.

[@snowman4933]

I guess I get how. I use monospace that is default to terminator, but when I saw those fonts in the terminal of the video, it felt like cozy. Monospace feels like it's robotic, fira code feels like they are trying to be cozy while still maintaining monospace style, where CC felt like (even tho I haven't used, but from what I've seen) it seems like I'm reading doujinshi/manga/eromanhwa, what I love to do.

[@dealloc]

MonoLisa does look great (although I've never been a huge fan of the cursive glyphs in italicized text), but for $200 (or even $50 for the Personal license) it is quite a steep price for many. Though, I can totally get it's worth for some to invest in something you're going to have to look at for hours end every day, especially if it's part of your job-and even better if you get it as a gift. It's also really hard to find good open source monospace fonts that looks great across all kinds of monitors and devices. The only open source font that I've found so far that suits all my needs is JetBrains Mono which has the right weight balance across HiDPI as well as non-HiDPI screens without needing to dig into sub-pixel aliasing settings, letter spacing and font sizes.

[@EthanShnesy]

I just want to point out that I decided to look into getting this font for myself. Unless you’re willing to pay $80 for the entire font family, the coding essentials pack requires you to select at purchase if you want or don’t want ligatures. I feel like that shouldn’t be a choice I’m locked into making upon purchase. If I decide I don’t want ligatures anymore, I guess I have no choice without buying the font again? 🤔
