I was the same until I started using Fira Code and don't think I'll ever go back to anything else. the ligatures are worth it

One alternative you could consider is narrow fonts like Pragmata[1] (commercial) or Iosevka[2] (gratis, FOSS). Being able to fit more stuff onto you screen side-by-side is what enabled me to get as much into tmux as I am now.

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.

You’re right! Check out the NL (no ligature) version: https://github.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono/tree/master/fonts...
You could try Sarasa Gothic, which is made by the same person who made Iosevka.

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).
