Future of Delugia #83
Comments
@NormTurtle Please feel free to write something here, any input is appreciated :-) |
Delugia is the primarily my First Font . which also introduces me too NERD Font and font ligature. i still do not know, how Font maintenace works. :-| all i can say Delugia is one of the product which i been sticked to... i look forward for what the maintainers decides. |
Hey @Finii Thanks for opening this. |
Here a comparison matrix of versions
Further differences
All the work done with Delugia finally ended up in Nerd Fonts, so the differences are negligible now. I believe I personally use Delugia as main font not only because of nostalgic reasons but also because I can wipe all 'Nerd Fonts' fonts from my system and still have a nice font installed, when I do Nerd Fonts development.

Anyhow, I guess we should halt the auto-release of a Delugia version on Cascadia releases until we can see and examine the outcome of Cascadia NF, and how good it will fit our 'customers' needs.
We could also think about updating Delugia to Nerd Fonts v3.2.1, if it has any merrit.
I hope to start some open discussion and brainstorming here.
