  • cascadia-code

    This is a fun, new monospaced font that includes programming ligatures and is designed to enhance the modern look and feel of the Windows Terminal.

  • recursive

    Recursive Mono & Sans is a variable font family for code & UI

  • https://github.com/arrowtype/recursive/blob/main/OFL.txt says it is the most common open source font license, and allows even commercial use. It can definitely be shipped by distros. I use it from AUR though.

  • Ligaturizer

    Programming Fonts with Ligatures added (& a script to add them to other fonts)

  • One can copy ligatures between fonts: https://github.com/ToxicFrog/Ligaturizer

    That would remove my primary objection to Input. Seeing a broken arrow -> is ground glass in my eye; other font subtleties are a sign to me I'm losing focus.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
