Wow, poor comic sans didn’t deserve all the hate it got

I've coded with comic neue https://comicneue.com/ over the last few years. I would definitely recommend it.

I will forever believe the comic sans hate is one of the internet's seemingly random circlejerks, like hating Imagine Dragons.

A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell

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.

Comic Sans is actually really good for dyslexic people. It's why I usually use Comic Sans or Comic Neue when I print stuff out for my dad.

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.

I…don’t hate it? Why am I not horribly offended by this?

⚠️ I have reported this post to the proper authorities.

Friendship ended with font gatekeeping and dogpiling, accessibility is my new best friend

If you like that, check out Recursive Sans & Mono

I wouldn't pick it over Fira Code but it has a bit of whimsy to it that reminds me of Comic Mono.

Oh no now I want to build a whole Arch rice around that font.

...no that's not enough.

we need ComicSansOS

Oh no, I was ready to pick up my pitchfork, but that is super legible. Brb, I need to go take a look at myself in the mirror...

I came here to get mad but comic sans monospaced looks really good. I'm impressed. I might switch my IDE to this.

Does it support ligatures??

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

This is surprisingly not bad...

Ngl that is really easy on the eyes. Dammit.

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

Look what you have done! I used Operator Mono for Italics. I kind of like this!

Need to give this a go at work tomorrow!

At least you’re using a monospaced one…

I tried that this morning at work, as a joke.

It was still there when I got off.

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.

Seriously, for coding I use daily Fantasque Sans Mono, which is based on Comic Sans. I love it.

Comic Code is my go-to!

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.

My original intention was to come here and proclaim that you're a heretic. Having looked at it for a moment, I think that you're onto something here...

not a crime. i use it for my notepad, it looks weird but its fine for me.
