What Hacker News says

Oh! I recognize that font from the recent thread on fonts! It's called Maple Mono[0], and yeah the connected cursive italic lowercase l is weird. But it's also implemented/designed poorly[1], and there's a chance it only looks awful because of that (lol). But IDK because there's no example of it being done well to compare against. It certainly would look less weird if they just didn't try to connect them to preceding letters. Anyway, someone was gushing about it, and that struck me as very odd specifically because of how bad the lowercase italic l is, but you can disable that feature if you want. So maybe that's the version they were using. [0] - https://github.com/subframe7536/Maple-font [1] - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47580590
In Update on the eBay Scam
Adding to the list of 'this is what I am using', I have switched both terminal and code editor to Maple Mono[1]. Which, looking at TFA, seems to be somewhat similar in spirit as Atkinson Hyperlegible, although I haven't used that. Maple has many ligatures, I personally like the hypervisible [TODO]. Overall I find it very legible, even on small sizes, and pleasing also for writing e.g. in Markdown. [1] https://font.subf.dev/en/ / https://github.com/subframe7536/maple-font
