As far as serif monospace, NSimSun is still my favorite. It's in Windows. I love Triplicate but can't bring myself to purchase yet. I like Equity, too.

I think Triplicate is the closest to the old Selectric Prestige font, which I loved. But if anyone has NSimSun replacements (paid or free), please let me know.

A sibling post [1] mentioned Xanh Mono, which looks similar to NSimSun IMO. They both have that distinctive "Latin script alongside eastern script" serif look.

Equity, a mono serif? Where do you find that one?

Equity is being mentioned as another of Matthetw Butterick’s fonts—a serif, not a monospaced font.
