You seem to know what you're talking about, so do you have any suggestions for good font choices for programming in particular?

Not OP but there were some decent ones in the comparison box w/ the slider (such as Source Code Pro). Deja Vu Sans Mono is another good one.

I daily Inconsolata (well, technically the ligaturized version). I find it extremely legible, and most importantly, it's easy on the eyes. A lot of programming fonts tend to be too angular for my tastes (I've tried SF Mono and plenty others, and settled on Inconsolata.)

Really, programming fonts are down to taste -- there's not objectively a best one; for an example of that, look in this thread: some people like Victor Mono, whilst others dislike it, and that's fine!

Thank you for being a voice of reason :)

+1 for Inconsolata, by the way, lovely font!
