Fira Code for me. It's based on Fira Mono but with a ton of useful ligatures for coding.

Much better, and justifies the use of a special font, which IMO is not really worth it without ligatures.

I switched to Fira Code a couple months ago, as well, and now when I don't have it I feel sad. The ligatures make my Perl and JS code so pretty. It's just more satisfying when I have to stare at the same project for hours.
