What fonts are you currently using on your system? Which do you think is best for the terminal or for your desktop environment?

(updates) Ok I think I’m a fan of Ubuntu nerd fonts right now

      Same. I’ve compiled a custom variant of Iosevka for terminal and code, because I want to have some chars in a certain way, especially the 0 and the & for even better readability. I used to have Monoid for code and terminal, but it the pixel perfect size for 12pt was getting too small for me and my eyes are not getting any better. Iosevka looks better even after some hinting by the OS.

      On the rest of the desktop UI I use B612, because it is very ledgible, I recently switch over from the hyperledible Atkinson font. Before that I had Gidole on the desktop. Very pleasing, but not that readable at same font size.

      Iosevka fits very well with East Asian characters, if you need those.

      I find it narrower than I like otherwise, but I need Japanese characters often enough that I put up with it for my terminal.
