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 :)
Ngl that is really easy on the eyes. Dammit.
Yeah, I'm surprised how much I like the look of this. I'm into it.
Saving that font for my e-reader tablet.
Suuuper legible and fast to read.
A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell
"Serious tho, Comic sans" four words I didn't expect today. Thanks for the heads up on legibility as a small font.
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.
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.
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
Need to give this a go at work tomorrow!
somehow this doesn't offend my eyes the way comic sans usually does, so I guess that's a win?
Nothing wrong with that. I personally couldn’t switch to it though.
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.

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.

If the font weight were ratcheted down a little, I'd be pretty happy with it.
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.
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.

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!
That's actually not bad.
WolfgangsChannel also recently said he used a comics sans-lile font
omfg this is the perfect demo font
Goddamn it...
installs the font on his computer
