I'm sad to see this comment, scoffing at an independent creator just selling something cool online. I wonder why this reaction? Is it the imagined profit margin? Or just the choice of words in the listing? The listing says it's a

I'm a big fan of this font, I use it every day and have never regretted the purchase. Unfortunately the OP noted they didn't like Iosevka, which I think is pretty visually similar.
