Seriously, though, Comic Sans was originally designed to be legible at the smallest possible font size, and the lack of hard lines makes it easier to read!

I’m intrigued, but it feels so wrong

Look what you have done! I used Operator Mono for Italics. I kind of like this!

Is it that bad? Now I have IBM Plex installed

I was addicted to coding with Comic Mono and ended up purchasing Comic Code. No regrets.

There was a YouTube programmer I used to watch called funfunfunction. He'd do a weekly video where he'd take a task, a framework, and a "handicap". One episode I remember someone suggested "comic sans lol" , which he set up, but it looked good

Um, can I get this to work as a default Lemmy typeface? I love it.

I also like Comic Sans in general, what can I say I guess that makes me a giant Eldritch tentacle monster.

I'd love to see someone code in the actual Comic Sans rather than the awesomely adapted Comic Mono. Indentation be damned!

Whatever helps you to the path of a 10x developer, my friend.

My eyes just can't adjust to this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That's actually not bad.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

not a crime. i use it for my notepad, it looks weird but its fine for me.

A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

At least you’re using a monospaced one…

somehow this doesn't offend my eyes the way comic sans usually does, so I guess that's a win?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It's not even monospace
