alt Hacker NewsCodingFont: A game to help you pick a coding font

Is it weird that I look at most of the offered pairs and think "meh, both are ok, I guess", but do not feel any preference one way or the other?
Like, some fonts look to weird/unusual that I dislike. But most look just fine and I don't really care.
Am I weird? Do I lack taste?
This was a pleasant surprise to enjoy, I was surprised to discover a font I wasn’t aware of.
Seeing all the fonts listed here it would be great to be able to add user submissions into the mix.
It works -- by the end I was facing off against my two favorites. ;) I CAN'T CHOOSE.
Mine is Red Hat Mono, but really I don't like any of the presented fonts.
Serifs so I and l look different, monospace so it's possible to use spaces for alignment, and a slash or dot in the zero. What else do I need?
Some previous discussion including a Show HN: from the dev:
JetBrains Mono. Makes sense
Can we just talk about how good Source Code Pro is?
ubuntu mono, fira code
Fira Code
JetBrains Mono
That's the one i have been using for many years, look like i made the right choice
I don't need this many rounds to determine it. There should be "neither" to limit the weird fonts that will never fly.
I'm tired of colors. I wonder if I hate them all or just haven't found the perfect one.
Roboto Mono, apparently
Wow, some of these are looking atrocious. (Victor Mono, Syne Mono, Nova Mono)
What I'm missing is DejaVuSansMono which is what I'm using. The result of the test was Ubuntu Mono, which looks okay too.
