I tried out Monaspace but felt that the fonts were a bit thin for my QHD monitor I use as my primary display. It might be better on a retina/4k monitor though.

Perhaps fonts are something you get used to after some time using it, but I ended up switching back to my favorite font, Input Mono (which, as a coding font, isn't actually monospace, so it brings a bunch of cool features and doesn't need to do texture healing).

Input Mono is actually monospace. Input Sans and Input Serif are the ones that aren’t (merely monospace-inspired).


Monospace can be parameterized, you can just make the font weight larger.


Good tip! I might try this variable width idea. Seems a bit out there.
