Berkeley Mono Typeface
It's a bit expensive, and I can understand if someone can't or doesn't want to spend money on it. I would recommend to check out the free fonts 'JetBains Mono' & 'Hack' to these people.
Some people have already mentioned here that Berkeley Mono is not available as Nerd Font. I would like to briefly point out that Nerd Fonts provides a font patcher tool (https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#font-patcher).

NvChad - multiple different client offset_encodings detected for buffer
I'm using Neovim v0.9.1 on Ubuntu 23.04 with NvChad. I've also installed the JetBrainsMono font, as NvChad requires a Nerd Font, but nothing besides that and I haven't edited any settings or nvim files and I haven't installed any additional plugins.

JetBrains Mono Typeface
There are a lot of code fonts on HN today. Rather than make a new post I will talk about some of my favorite that are a little less common. None of these are free I don't think.
Cartograph CF - The one I've been using for code for years. Very readable, almost "comic mono"-like choices of some of the lower case glyphs but in a good way. All the character is in the italic which you will either love or hate.
Quadraat sans mono - The entire quadraat family is a collection of masterpieces imo, but are generally too distinctive to be appropriate for most public-facing work. But it's your computer so who cares. I use the mono sans one for my terminal. The lowercase f seems so out of place there but you learn to love it.
Alegreya sans - Not a mono font, but it almost is so if you've ever flirted with proportional fonts for code this is a fun one to try. There is a lot of careful line width variation that gives a lot of the appearance and readability advantages of serifs but keeps most of the visual coherence of sans.
I like all of these because they look feel more like normal fonts rather than code fonts. They have careful variation that adds character and improves readability for me. I've switched to an almost-no-color code theme that uses font weight instead, and the details like this become more important that way.
And then only kind of related but if you want to use unusual fonts in your terminal but you have a complex prompt setup, install font forge and learn to use something like https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/blob/master/font-pat... to patch in the extra characters. This can also solve your "I love this font but want a dotted zero" type problems as well. Small skill investment for a small return over a long period of time. You'll always be using fonts.

Not sure what icon I'm missing here
I'm assuming you're using a Nerd Font already, since I see the Rust logo and folder icons in your terminal. However, it's possible that your particular font is based on Nerd Font 2.x and the newest version is 3.x. Maybe try scanning your Lua config with nerdfix to identify whether the diagnostics icons you have set (among others) are using outdated 2.x character codes. If they are, try replacing them in your config, and also try upgrading your terminal's Nerd Font compliant font to the latest version (NF's GitHub release page says 3.0.1 is the newest version). Hope this helps your troubleshooting efforts!

How do you work with buffers?
Powerline (and airline, as well as all plugins of that kind) offers, among other things, a GUI that helps you manage buffers and tabs. There are plugins that do just that and nothing else, which are best used alongside powerline/airline/etc, for example bufferline.

Is Vim worth the investment?
Powerline Provides a much nicer status line in Vim, including integration with Git to tell you what branch you’re on and the tracking status of the file you’re working on.
-
What is the name of the cli tool that shows your current branch and changes you've made?
powerline includes prompts for bash and zsh that include git info. (despite selling itself as a vim statusline, I believe you can use its shell prompts without using it with vim.)

What are these characters? They look sort of like shurikens
Could also be a patched font. Some fonts use the private use area of unicode to draw glyphs for use in interface. Check out for example these patched fonts for Powerline on GitHub. Powerline is a status line plugin for vim and it uses text to draw the interface. If you download one, drop it on a font visualizer e.g. fontdrop.info you'll see a range of specific glyphs inside the private use area (E000–F8FF). There's even an Ubuntu logo at E0FF.

Getting an error message when trying to use nvim after installing alacritty
You are wrong

After years on Linux, I just discovered Vim & TMUX. They're fucking amazing.
Wait until you discover that you can apply powerline to both of them

Add Powerline glyphs to IBM Plex fonts
IBM Plex is an interesting font that I'm looking forward to, and I would like to try it out. However, you may be in similar setup as I am, which relays on Powerline glyphs in order to display vim/statusline/prompt correctly.
