Intel One Mono Typeface
I like it a lot! Definitely in the camp of “comic sans is over-hated for poor reasons, and might even have legibility benefits for dyslexia”, and I considered a few comic sans inspired monospaced fonts before settling on Source Code Pro. The leaders were Fantasque (https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans/) and Comic Code (https://tosche.net/fonts/comic-code). (Comic Code’s creator actually links to the font you linked, Comic Mono, as an example of a free font with the same spirit!)
Ultimately I found that anything descended from or inspired by comic sans ended up a little too busy for my eyes.

How to make Emacs always display zeros with slashes?
For Emacs I use Fantasque Sans Mono, which has a slashed zero and some other good features (e.g. clear difference between 1 and l).

Modern Mono
I thought it would be silly or I would hate it, but the comic sans like nature of Fantasque Sans Mono really surprised me and worked well for coding/IDE use (especially in Python): https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans

new rules at work… I’m turning in my 2 week notice asap
I know you didn't ask but I have mild dyslexia and a friend turned me on to the font he uses for coding called Fantasque Sans. I found it to be pleasantly readable like Comic Sans without being as stylistically offensive.

What's your favorite Nerd Font?
Fantasque Sans (https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans) - I love it and use it for years in all editors! For terminal I use a patched variant of Ubuntu Mono.

Berkeley Mono Typeface
Hack is very underrated and awesome. Fira Code is nice, so is Adobe Source Code Pro [0], and Iosevka [1]. Yet, Berkeley is truly at its own level.

What fonts do you use for writing?
I've been using the free Source Code Pro (GitHub source). While it works well for coding of course, I find it is also pleasing to read from for large quantities of text. The characters are distinct (no confusion between 0O lI etc.) but understated, which is what you want for something you read thousands of words with every day.
