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.

Can you clearly tell all these characters apart in your editor font?
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?
Big fan of jetbrains mono.
Fira Code is my go-to.
