Cons
Con Persisting libxft related crashes
Disabling hinting or aliasing for font cause libxft to crash the application. Emojis cause it to crash too. The error has been around for a while now, and the community refuses to make a workaround, because it should be fixed in libxft.

Flagged Pros + Cons
Pro Support for fontconfig
There is full XFT (X Free Type interface library) and fallback font support through fontconfig in st. If your selected font is missing a certain glyph or symbol, but one of your other installed fonts has it, it will be shown.
Pro Extremely simple architecture
st consists of a single C file that takes seconds to recompile. This also makes it very easy to understand and customize.
