I'm in a never-ending cycle of wanting to find a better monospace font, spending countless hours looking through various alternatives and coming back to the one I'm currently using.

After using Ubuntu Mono for many many years I've switched to IBM Plex Mono and basically can't find a better font for me. At this point it's like my eyes are so used to this font I could never use anything else, despite the fact that my brain wants to try something new. So it's my default choice for any monospace font that I can set up.

Completely agree that it's hard to beat IBM Plex Mono. And although it doesn't matter much in many contexts in which I use a monospaced font, it has really nice italics, which most monospaced fonts don't.

Fira Mono is also extremely well done, as you'd expect for a typeface from Erik Spiekermann.
