Victor Mono still the best for dense terminals

Why is this at the top of hackernews?

InconsolataGo is all that is needed

the font never worked right for me. the variants were not recognized in vscode

Buy the original PragmataPro and support original creators. The rest are ripoffs, plain and simpls, copied by leeches.

What does it mean for a font (or typeface) to be "quasi‑proportional"?

Also, whoever said that fonts intended for a terminal need to be narrower? Some terminals have narrower chars, some wider. And terminal emulators often allow for multiple char aspect ratios - e.g. via bitmap fonts of different aspect ratio.

Anyway, the typeface looks interesting, but I would have liked for the creators to compare and contrast it with existing (and popular) monospace / terminal-oriented typefaces.

I felt like my eyes hurt when I tried this font. It's hard for me to switch away from the standard width monospace fonts. At the moment I use Commit Mono. Extra horizontal space might be nice but it's not worth risking any discomfort

Does tsoding use this font?

I occasionally try to find a nicer font than Iosevka, but none of them stick and I always go back.

I prefer Pragmasevka
