What fonts are you currently using on your system? Which do you think is best for the terminal or for your desktop environment?

(updates) Ok I think I’m a fan of Ubuntu nerd fonts right now

For desktop, I’ve liked Lato, Source Sans Pro, and Inter to name three.

For terminal, I used Iosevka’s customizer to create a gorgeous Fira Mono-like variant that I call Iosevka Firesque:

[buildPlans.IosevkaFiresque]
family = "Iosevka Firesque"
spacing = "term"
serifs = "sans"
noCvSs = true
exportGlyphNames = false

  [buildPlans.IosevkaFiresque.variants]
  inherits = "ss05"

    [buildPlans.IosevkaFiresque.variants.design]
    capital-g = "toothless-corner-serifless-hooked"
    capital-q = "crossing-baseline"
    g = "single-storey-serifed"
    long-s = "bent-hook-tailed"
    cyrl-a = "single-storey-earless-corner-serifed"
    cyrl-ve = "standard-interrupted-serifless"
    cyrl-capital-ze = "unilateral-serifed"
    cyrl-ze = "unilateral-serifed"
    cyrl-capital-en = "top-left-bottom-right-serifed"
    cyrl-en = "top-left-bottom-right-serifed"
    cyrl-capital-er = "open-serifless"
    cyrl-er = "earless-corner-serifless"
    cyrl-capital-u = "cursive-flat-hook-serifless"
    cyrl-u = "curly-motion-serifed"
    cyrl-capital-e = "unilateral-bottom-serifed"
    cyrl-e = "unilateral-bottom-serifed"
    brace = "straight"
    ampersand = "upper-open"
    at = "threefold"
    cent = "open"

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
