The way they talk about it makes it sound like they invented the written word, but that notwithstanding the fonts actually look really nice in my opinion.

Not sure if you misspoke or are just unaware of it, but Hack is one of the prepatched nerd fonts: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-fonts/Hack. Also, for any fonts that aren't prepatched, there's a patcher in that repo to make any font a nerd font.

oh wait you're right. I wasn't having luck with the nerd fonts on windows but on linux it was somewhat better. what I was thinking about was having Hack with nerd fonts and Jetbrains ligatures patched in. I found a couple repos that purported to do that except the ligatures never worked.
