I... Somehow just realized that I can of course change my editor font. After three years in professional software dev.

Any recommendations for maximizing readability?

I picked up a great little test along the way: type the word ill or illegal followed by 100, using a capital I in illegal and mixing an upper case O and a zero in the number.

Ill10O

Can you clearly tell all these characters apart in your editor font?

I am all about Fira Code, myself
