I've been using beamer with metropolis theme for some time now. The
recommended font here is Fira. I've used:
\setsansfont[
BoldFont={Fira Sans SemiBold},
ItalicFont={Fira Sans BookItalic},
BoldItalicFont={Fira Sans SemiBold Italic}
]{Fira Sans Book}
I found the semibold seems the most pleasing weight.
Then to try to get a good matching math font, I've tried adding:
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage[mathrm=sym]{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Fira Math}
\setoperatorfont\mathsf
This is not terrible, but the math still looks more bold than the text.
I wonder whether any of you use metropolis and what fonts you find work well?
There is some previous discussion here in which I participated:

When I use metropolis, I pair it with Calibri, a Windows system font. My
needs are very simple and I don't need a specific math font. I find that
Calibri is pleasant when projected on a screen and it has a nice Italic
for a sans-serif font. Because it is a Windows font, I compile my
presentations with XeLaTeX.
