"fi" loses the monospace property

[mholt]

Hi! This is a great-looking font. I was about to use it for our project's documentation pages, but I noticed a visual inconsistency that appears frequently in our text.

The kerning between fi is not monospaced:

I assume this isn't intentional. If I knew how to change a font, I would, but do you think you could look into this?

We use the word file a lot, and IMO it looks pretty out of place. Thanks for considering!

I just discovered the font-feature-settings: "liga" 0; feature of CSS which is a suitable workaround. Still, just my 2 cents, the combined "fi" looks strange on a monospaced font. 🤷‍♂️ Thanks!

Came here to point out the same thing. The inclusion of ligatures that take the same space as just one regular character in a monospaced font is a head scratcher, to say the least. Even ffi or ffl get crammed into the space of one character.

I was a bit surprised to see it hasn't been addressed yet, but I suppose it's fair enough if nobody is actively working on the font any more.

If anyone interested, I forked Chivo and generated a new font that fixes this issue: https://github.com/NamesMT/Chivo
