I'm looking for a good on the eyes font that suport a feel special characters like ç, ã and í. It also need to have a easy difference between 0/O and I/l. Sorry if this is not the best place to ask this.

Edit: thank you everyone for the answers, i will use fira code on my terminal and intel one mono on my text editor.

I liked that there is a version with a cut on z and 7, and the original pixelated version would be good in a game

Since nobody has mentioned yet: I use a proportional font (Go Regular) for programming. It's weird at first but it's a pretty interesting exercise. There's an interesting write up about using non-monospaced font on the Input font website.

I just don't see how this:

^(https?://)?([\da-z.-]+).([a-z.]{2,6})([/\w .-])/?$

Is easier to read than this:

^(https?:\/\/)?([\da-z\.-]+)\.([a-z\.]{2,6})([\/\w \.-]*)*\/?$

It's not about alignment - tabs work in any decent editor. I just think it's easier to read fonts that are a little more spread out especially with operators.

+1 for Go and Input fonts. You have the same stack as me.

Highly recommend Menlo or Meslo LG S (An enhanced open source version of Menlo).
