I enjoy using hack font, however I still doesnt like some glyph renderings, especially for number "1"
which look bit strange at small sizes - it is similar to "l" in many fonts.
Is it possible to make it more readable for example like in fira code?
Below comparsion of "1"

Thanks for pointing this out @lhutyra. Can I ask that you post your platform and the size that you are rendering the font in the images above? We can explore it at different sizes and see how it is rendered on your platform.

Looks like the top of the glyph is being clipped off for you. Is that the case compared to the 1 in the image on our README or the font specimen (link at bottom of readme)
