That matches up with my initial impression as well. I'm coming from Fira Code, which I've been using for a while now and really love. The glyphs are noticeably wider, but to be honest, after using Iosevka for the last half hour or so, I'm kind of enjoying the compactness.
It's the first narrow typeface I haven't rejected immediately for writing code. I ran into what looks like some issues with certain ligatures not being substituted, but that looks to be an editor-specific issue. They're fine in Terminal and vim, but Atom had some issues with some (e.g., <--> <*> <.> and others along those lines). I will say that Fira Code seems to have a more diverse set of ligatures,[0] though some of them--the equality glyphs in particular--were annoying at times because they were such a visible change over what you actually typed.
