I've been using Input for a while. What do you use?
+1 for Operator Mono, it's so nice.
+1 Operator Mono, IMHO the best font for this job.
SF Mono
Yup it's great + default system font
I've tried everything. I always go back to Monaco.
This is the correct answer :). Monaco 9 if on non-retina and Monaco 10 on retina displays. Though it is a shame there's no bold variant; I'd love to see someone update and create one.
Office Code Pro, it's a beaut.
Wørd. I love Office Code Pro. Really readable and friendly at all sizes.
I use Input as well.

I love the ligatures of Fira Code. I'm pretty much using it since it was released.
Those ligatures are nice. Did it take you a while to get used to reading them? I imagine it would be easy to look over things like <=
at first.
Inconsolata
Source Code Pro or San Francisco Mono.
Another vote for Source Code Pro here. Great legibility and weighting.
You might like Office Code Pro, which is based on Source Code.
I use Roboto Mono with the Ayu theme theme for Sublime Text.
I use source code pro. I love it.
Pragmata (Commercial)
Consolas
Source Code Pro.
Space Mono
I wanted to like Space Mono, but the [
and {
are too visually similar for me :/ The letterforms are great though.
I've been using Panic Sans (extractable from Panic's Coda) in both Atom & iTerm2 for a while now. Some of these look nice enough to have me considering a switch.
I am using DejaVu Mono
On Codepen as well as in Atom.
I don't do code.
SF Mono FTW!
Using "Cousine" at the moment.
