What (latex compatible) fonts do you like/recommend then?

In my opinion, it's kind of sad to see how strongly Computer Modern dominates the font choices in latex (and more generally the latex monoculture).

Well, this is personal preference and aesthetics, so I'm not sure others would have to follow. Palatino is nice, though and has a package where it's also the math font (mathpazo). That was as far as I got with fonts for plain old LaTeX.

Otherwise I'm currently using XeLaTeX (if I use LaTeX at all), so I'm not limited to compatible fonts and anything that's OpenType works.
