What font size do you normally use for programming?

I've been using 12-14px for years, but I switched to 16px for the last couple of hours. Feels weird but I kinda like it.

Sure, you do lose some real estate but it feels like it's way easier for the eyes. Less physical strain == less mental strain, which in turn makes for higher quality code.

Also, selecting stuff is more satisfying, but that's probably just me since I'm weird ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Any thoughts?

@Charon92 yes you're 100% right, the font used does play a huge role

I've been using firacode for a while since I really like ligatures

I like my font small. Like look at my phone small.
Edit: anywhere between 12 and 14px, depends on the font, the editor and the screen dpi.

wha... 16px...
I usually use 10-12. I like to have a lot of lines on my screen at once. Though Terminus might just be a relatively large font.
