As long as it's a monospaced font I don't really care what the font is. (Wingdings excluded)
Might give it a try for a day.

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

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.
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.
A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell
Saving that font for my e-reader tablet.
Suuuper legible and fast to read.
It's interesting that you added serifs and monospacing to a sans serif font. It's almost like comic sans but with all the things that make it comic sans removed.
Well it is Comic Mono after all, not Comic Sans Mono :)
somehow this doesn't offend my eyes the way comic sans usually does, so I guess that's a win?
The kerning in comic sans is atrocious.
This one is just monospaced.
Nothing wrong with that. I personally couldn’t switch to it though.
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
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.
"Serious tho, Comic sans" four words I didn't expect today. Thanks for the heads up on legibility as a small font.
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.
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.
Does it support ligatures??
WolfgangsChannel also recently said he used a comics sans-lile font
Goddamn it...
installs the font on his computer
You absolute madman
If the font weight were ratcheted down a little, I'd be pretty happy with it.
Whatever helps you to the path of a 10x developer, my friend.
Might have to learn to code, love me some Comic sans
Stumbled into this site while looking through other comments and apparently it was designed for the speech bubbles of a cartoon dog, not sure about the "legible at small sizes" claim - http://www.connare.com/whycomic.htm
Seriously, for coding I use daily Fantasque Sans Mono, which is based on Comic Sans. I love it.
