    Inconsolata LGC with nerd-fonts. I edit all my text and code in Helix, a TUI editor, and having proper support for Cyrillic and Greek is important for me. Also, I like how it looks.

    I think I’m using Iosevka in the terminal at the moment, although it’s maybe a bit too narrow for my tastes. For GUI I use San Francisco Pro (Apple font)

    Edit: now trying Plex Mono in the terminal and I like it. It feels more like a “normal” font.

      Caskaydia Cove for me. Because “Cascadia” is a reserved font name in Windows for some reason.

      This is the best font IMO. I used to use source code pro, but I switched to Plex a few years ago and it’s all I want to use now.

        Sans has a variable variant and the other two do not, I think.

    I use Fira Code Retina. I like that it is not too light, not too bold. I’m also partial to Cascadia Code and DejaVu Mono.

    For the GUI, I use Adwaita Sans in both my GNOME and XFCE computers.

      Fira Code is my answer as well! I’ll use others for some variety, but it’s the favorite I always go back to.

      Fira Code is seriously awesome. I love how it is delightfully quirky. Not too much, just enough to give it plenty of character without becoming weird, annoying, or hard to read.

      I also really like how it is more wide than most. If I’m supposed to finish all my lines at 80 characters there’s no point in using something that condensed.

      Actually, I would really like to find a similarly non-bland proportional character to use beside it.

        Well, there’s Fira Sans, but I don’t know if it’s what you want. I like to use it for things like slides and titles, and I’ve used it as a GUI typography for some time.
