i3's titlebar isn't rendering the fonts correctly. And the current font im using it JetBrainsMono Nerd Font, but i've also tried this using non-monospaced fonts like Noto Sans as well. All of it gives the same result. Thanks in advance.

colored statusbar in dwm w/ statuscolor
I just patched statuscolors to my dwm build with the aim of bringing colors to my statusbar (I use dwmblocks). I want to achieve something aesthetically similar to bumblebee-status, with each statusbar block appearing in a different color. As explained in the patch documentation, I defined an array of colors in my dwm config, something like this:
