I made a custom Iosevka build by selecting glyph variants based on Atkison Hyperlegible.

Iosevka is absolutely wonderful!

I have my own builds -- not based on AH's glyph choices, but also chosen to minimize glyph ambiguity.

I'll mention another great legible monospace project: 0xProto

I really like the aesthetics of Iosevka, but the glyphs are really narrow - resulting in severe readability problems for me (I'm diagnosed dyslexic).

You can configure your build to be wider than default. In order of increasing width:

- semi-extended

- extended

- extra-extended

- ultra-extended

I think by default the extended variant is included in most builds anyway, if you want to try it.

FWIW here's a sample of my usual build's extended variant: https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/b49zcjd53oy.png
