I feel like a whole new world has opened its doors to me. I’m using this tomorrow at work.

Shit I might just try this out. I hope my colleagues don’t notice.
I'm going to try this after trying Intel's new font that's supposed to be made to accommodate for vision impairment.
That looks sooooooo nice
Who knew? Just make it monospace.
This is surprisingly not bad...
I've been using it for a while. It's pretty great.
I love Comic Mono. I use Comic Code - it's not free but it does support ligatures, which was worth it to me. The legibility boost is excellent.
I unironically love Comic Mono. I am not dyslexic, I have good eyesight, but I feel like I can read code so much more easily with it versus most other monospaced fonts.
So despite the hate Comic Sans gets, squiggly fonts make it easier for dyslexics to read. Non-dyslexics can experience a similar effect by reading a book in serif then a non-serif font. I hate Comic Sans too lol but do what makes your life easier.

A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell
Nothing wrong with that. I personally couldn’t switch to that.
If the font weight were ratcheted down a little, I'd be pretty happy with it.
"Serious tho, Comic sans" four words I didn't expect today. Thanks for the heads up on legibility as a small font.
It's really weird to me how Internet sometimes decide to hate on things just for the sake of it.
I wouldn't be using it myself, because I'm not a fan of hand-written style fonts. But, I see no problem with Comic Sans.
That's actually not bad.
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
I unironically really like Comic Mono despite not super being a fan of Comic Sans (not cos it looks bad, I think it's actually really nice looking, just overused)
I keep thinking about switching to this font. I use Fira Code atm, and I'd miss the ligatures, but this genuinely looks a a lot more readable
Need to give this a go at work tomorrow!
Saving that font for my e-reader tablet.
Suuuper legible and fast to read.
Great to find another Comic Mono user! It's super easy to read. I've been using it in IDEs / Terminal for a while now.
I've even set up Stylus scripts to use it in GitHub and other sites as I find weird going back to the "normal" code fonts.
the very typeface you’ve been trained to recognize since childhood What does this mean? I feel like the one we learned from childhood would be Times New Roman since every teacher I had required that font.
I don't know how things are today but when I was a kid, some of my textbooks and many of my worksheets were in comic sans.
Goddamn it...
installs the font on his computer
At least you’re using a monospaced one…
omfg this is the perfect demo font
someone at work was sharing their screen and I think they were using this font
it was pretty jarring to me, but if it helps people read easier that's cool!
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!
Does it support ligatures??
