I've been using Commit Mono for the past 6 months or so and love the clarity at small sizes (for my eyes, at least). Before that, I mainly used Source Code Pro and Comic Mono. My long term friend is Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.

Turning on font "smart kerning" or "texture healing" in Emacs

I found the Commit Mono kerning feature in its repo here. It classifies common ascii characters into "narrow", "normal", "larger", and "widest" sizes, and repositions them based on what they appear next too.

Commit Mono font does something similar and calls it “Smart kerning”. Visit https://commitmono.com/ and click on the “04 Intelligent” for details.
In practice this is unusable. Because the width of the letters now depends on the succeeding character, the text jumps as you write it. Super annoying.
Cool for reading. Awful for writing.
