"@" looks bad on 12 point #116

First of all, thank you for the font. I love the design and aesthetic of Victor Mono. This is currently my primary font for terminal. In the terminal prompt, the @ symbol in bold looks difficult to identify. Here's a comparison with Jetbrains Mono for reference. image image

I'm not sure if it's the size (which is a factor I guess) or the spacing, but the @ looks blown out and difficult to read on 12.0, Increasing the size to 18 does solve this issue but that's too large for many terminal applications.

This is adjusted ever so slightly in the latest release. However, the overall style of the glyph is the same, as I prefer that to the other style seen in many other fonts. In small font sizes on low-DPI screens this glyph, as many other glyphs, will be harder to identify.
