The ligatures in Fira Code Nerd are my favorite feature.

May I ask why? I'm not loving ligatures :[

I gave Julia's and Fira's ligatures a try but no dice, it feels so super counterintuitive ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Thanks for sharing. A good read, the quick comparisons were awesome. I landed on Fira and Hack a while ago and have been happy. Judging by the comparisons in the article, I gotta give JetBrains Mono a try though ๐Ÿค”

0xProto looks very nice, thanks! But of course no comparison is complete without Iosevka. And it's so customizable it won't be complete even then...

Here's the build I use:

Spoiler alert: you're the second person to suggest Iosevka, so I just added it to the comparison ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

I must say I don't love it's narrowness, but it's really well made !
