    > 80 should be fine for most single lines of good code in most languages.

    C++ with even a modest template will flow over 80 without much effort.

    I'm now using the condensed width font Iosevka font [1] with 160 chars as my max width in clang-format and indents at 1.

    After a few days of using it, I'm converted. It was a bit odd looking at first, but I guess that's brain plasticity at work.

    Sadly I think that because of that flag it does not enable ligatures.

    I was able to see ligatures and text healing in vim running in a patched st* though. I really like it thanks! The text healing only moves the line subtly as I type and when I cursor over there are no droppings from the widened 'm' for example. It's well thought-out for code.

    If I could ask for a feature it would be to select some variants, like angular 0 with reverse slash or to leave the ! in the != ligature. To see what I mean: https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka/blob/main/doc/stylistic-...

    Iosevka is a fantastic open-source font that's fully customizable. I have replaced the fixed font on all of my devices and apps to a custom Iosevka build I made, and I don't think I'll ever turn back.

    Misremembered about Iosevka: I requested support for a few other BQN characters after noticing it already had the double-struck ones (https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka/issues/870). The other three were requests or contributions (drew 3270's 𝕏 myself!) explicitly in connection with BQN.

    Nothing beats Iosevka (https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka) for me. It's narrow yet super readable, making great use of screen real estate. Lots of customization, ligatures, weights, and a nerd font patch for terminal.

    > Monospace Iosevka contains various stylistic sets to change the shape of certain characters

    That's what's on display at the linked URL (if anyone else was confused)
