This is a hearty number of ligatures, and yet it is still not enough for me. Now that != and <= are table stakes, I keep noticing how nice Fira Code's alignment of the * height in *ptr, or the centering of the : in X:Y, or the raising of the x in 0xFF are. And the shaping of the Krypton variant would be my favorite - if the crossbar of the lowercase t was not so far below the height of e.g. the lowercase c. So I think I'm still sticking with Fira Code for now (but will certainly be checking back in a year to see what they've changed with user feedback).

Curiously for an example home page, the linked site's example ...

    // What if tentative ideas looked handwritten?
    
    /**
     * What if docstrings looked authoritative?
     */

... misaligning the two ** in /** is awkward.
