Built-in progress bar character rendering issue in VSCode Terminal: image

as you can see tiny single pixel lines exist between the bars compared to uni-code "█" fills space properly image

IIRC this is related to the rounding of the dimensions by the terminal, Kitty “hacks” around this by handling these characters specially; You can try to minimize the rounding error by changing the font size, but it's not an error on the font side.

That's correct. That's unfortunately how fonts work. Nothing I can do here
