Need to give this a go at work tomorrow!

So despite the hate Comic Sans gets, squiggly fonts make it easier for dyslexics to read. Non-dyslexics can experience a similar effect by reading a book in serif then a non-serif font. I hate Comic Sans too lol but do what makes your life easier.
Every PR you make is going to be denied.
I don't care it shows up as my BitStream Sans Mono, I know you write in comic sans, DENIED.
This is surprisingly not bad...
I've been using it for a while. It's pretty great.
I feel like a whole new world has opened its doors to me. I’m using this tomorrow at work.
Ngl that is really easy on the eyes. Dammit.
Seriously, for coding I use daily Fantasque Sans Mono, which is based on Comic Sans. I love it.
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.
There was a YouTube programmer I used to watch called funfunfunction. He'd do a weekly video where he'd take a task, a framework, and a "handicap". One episode I remember someone suggested "comic sans lol" , which he set up, but it looked good
A dude posted his neofetch on a Linux community and he uses fucking comic sans for his terminal. Probably will rot in hell
If the font weight were ratcheted down a little, I'd be pretty happy with it.
I love Comic Mono. I use Comic Code - it's not free but it does support ligatures, which was worth it to me. The legibility boost is excellent.
It's really weird to me how Internet sometimes decide to hate on things just for the sake of it.
I wouldn't be using it myself, because I'm not a fan of hand-written style fonts. But, I see no problem with Comic Sans.
Nothing wrong with that. I personally couldn’t switch to that.
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.
Does it support ligatures??
Whatever helps you to the path of a 10x developer, my friend.
WolfgangsChannel also recently said he used a comics sans-lile font
That's actually not bad.
Um, can I get this to work as a default Lemmy typeface? I love it.
I also like Comic Sans in general, what can I say I guess that makes me a giant Eldritch tentacle monster.
Shit I might just try this out. I hope my colleagues don’t notice.
You absolute madman
Saving that font for my e-reader tablet.
Suuuper legible and fast to read.
omfg this is the perfect demo font
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
My eyes just can't adjust to this.
nice, i’ve been using Comic Code for a couple years now which is similar
Although I might be interested in using the OP suggestion, I will draw the line at paying for this unholy combination :D ..... But we really, good efforts here
