For a long time, I’ve just put on DejaVu fonts and been done with it. Generally good enough Unicode coverage for me. But I know it’s been years since DejaVu’s been updated, and I wonder what’s very common today.

[As for the terminal, I’m guessing it’s usually still the standard fixed Unicode fonts?]

Lots of great fonts and families mentioned so far in this thread, but no-one has mentioned my current and long-time favourite for almost all environments and applications: Input.

$ echo sans serif monospace | xargs -n 1 fc-match
InputSansCondensed-Regular.ttf: "Input Sans Condensed" "Regular"
InputSerifCondensed-Regular.ttf: "Input Serif Condensed" "Regular"
InputMono-Regular.ttf: "Input Mono" "Regular"

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
