I have a confession to make... I code in Comic Sans

Seriously, though, Comic Sans was originally designed to be legible at the smallest possible font size, and the lack of hard lines makes it easier to read!

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.

That's interesting, how can I make GitHub use Fira Code of that's what I'm used to?

I use an extension called Stylus which allows you to inject css into sites. I have a general rule that overrides the font-family for pre / code elements. There's a great community around it for custom styles for various sites - offering dark modes, decluttered views, alternative themes etc.
