I switched from Inconsolata to IBM Plex, it's like stepping out of Plato's cave into the light of a clean pure typeface. Anybody else here wake up to the beauty of Plex here? It's an industry-grade typeface, not for the thin-wristed.

What's wrong with Inconsolata?
Based Plexposter. Say no to Jewfonts.
I switched from IBM Plex to IBM VGA, it's like stepping out of Plato's cave into the light of a clean pure typeface.
I like Incosolata, used it and -dz for a long time, but I've found that compared to plex, it's just downright fuzzy, and doesn't really seem to scale in size as well.
>scanning cave structure lmao
Both are unironically better than any Jewfont
Installed it. Looks nice.
Roboto is the only font family anyone needs
the l's and the 1's look too similar to me.
i use hack.
>Roboto
Why do people shill this disgusting thing so much?
I use hack too.
But for different reasons.
>let's promote a font where the uppercase I and the lowercase l look identical.
That looks like the font used for the book 'Unix Programming environment' in the 1980s
if you're going to shill for ibm 4 free at least use a better image you fuckface. just look at it
Jow Forums doesn't support .svg files m8, thats the best you're gonna get.
What about Adobe Source Code Pro?
If you don't use Helvetica and VHS Mono for everything then fuck off
Sans-Serif based fonts are also acceptable
what about a good old png instead of a blurred compressed jpg
>industry-grade typeface
Anybody interested in these things, there's a really good free book around called practical typography where it explains shit like Sherif and whatever practicaltypography.com
>you should always use a real professional font, not a free one
unironically this. there's a font called unscii that i use for everything now.
>pelulamu.net
i couldn't get the ttf or otf to work right (without blur), but the pcf is perfect.
I'll stick with Noto Mono, but I respect IBM Plex.
this looks cool, thanks for sharing
>completely changing your character shape for italics
>making your l look exactly like a 1 does in most other fonts
>those enormous serifs
0/10 bait OP. Apply yourself.
>IBM
>not jews
the only thing they do is extorting money from developers and product makers through patents, and they weren't less jewish when they rented computers to companies. dunno why they have such a cult following just because their own branded computers early on.
unironically shit font, shame on Google
>book about fonts
>has a garbage font
Hmm
Why doesn't this fuck just use TeX?
For you jew fucks

how do I break my love with terminus Jow Forums? it's just so crisp, compact and easy to read
*blocks your path*
Terminus looks better here, desu. I don't get how people can like these overloaded curly shitfonts, and I don't use bitmaps.
my biggest gripe with terminus is that the slashes are not 45 degrees
I might make a fork one day
>it explains shit like Sherif
>Sherif
best laugh I had all week
I like Less Perfect DOS VGA

kek
its okay.
No serifs makes it more readable. I believe Source Code Pro is superior to IBM Plex.
You don't have to sperg out just because you're poor.
>Plex
cursive font from typewriters is the one to go for
best font checking in
I was using this
github.com
You need to know the exact pt
it can be some random number like 9.3
is that a merchant
Plex Mono is definitely nice, but I really dislike the way the # character looks.
>that retarded C shape
eww
just switched based on user, i like that I know see a gap between multiple underscores __
ironically Liberation Mono is the best
please opendyslexic on everything
