I was on a quest to find the narrowest font and Quinze was the answer. It's something like 20% narrower than Iosevka, which is already quite narrow. I love Iosevka but to me nothing beats maximizing the area of the characters (readability) while minimizing their width (fitting more characters on a line). That means sacrificing the number of lines on the screen, which I solve by splitting when needed.
In fact this font is so narrow that when I attempted to force its use in all monospace text in the browser, readability took a hit instead of improving. This is because at the same height Quinze is much smaller than "normal" fonts. In my coding setup I use a huge font size so it's no problem.
