MonoLisa is a monospaced typeface specifically designed for coders

Nice site but I'll be sticking with Source Code Pro. I make my monospaced font decision pretty easily, how does the letter "o" look, perfectly round? Good, is the letter "c" also perfectly symmetrical? Excellent. MonoLisa is a bit too glamorous, to the point the letter "g" is hugely distracting. I also find the letter heights too tall, a very similar issue I found with JetBrains's new mono font.

In my opinion it's rather wide. I already feel certain lack of screen width even with full-screen terminal with two tmux panes, one taken by vim with four windows (1920x1080, 11pt Consolas; I would love to have three 80-char columns with gaps, but it's not enough even for 79-char ones).

Similarly, for print/web publishing most monospace fonts are overly wide and don't play well with the surrounding fonts when used inline or require reduced point size for blocks of code. The very few exceptions are Knuth mono fonts, they look fabulous in print and, I guess, PragmataPro, although I haven't used it myself.

So, in my opinion, trying to make an even wider font is going in a wrong direction.

This is nice, but it's not $59 nicer than Inconsolata.

Expensive proprietary fonts are for graphic designers where the right font can pay for itself. It doesn't make sense for developers where Inconsolata is free everywhere, and Microsoft and has Consolas which is free as in beer. Apple has a very well received developer font as well, although I don't recall its name.

Can anyone justify this price tag for me? Devil's advocates accepted.

If it's wider than Fira Code then it's too wide for me, personally. I often need 4 panels open side by side.

I like the spacing better than the other fonts, but the lowercase 'r' is pretty nasty looking. I can't get over that, nor do I think I can use it.

You should repost this, the font looks really nice.
