Problem

Default font is difficult to read. Increasing it's size from 9 to 10 would improve overall readability. First of all, it will be in line with Document and Monospace fonts, but most importantly on 15" FHD monitor Inter at size 9 looks horrible, limit unreadable in some cases.

Another issue. Something is wrong with Title font. Tweaks shows None, but I believe it is Cantarell. Also, I might be wrong, but it is not definitely Inter.

Proposal

For better OOB experience increase default font size to 10 or use Inter Medium not Regular. Fix Title font.

Hi, thanks for your reporting. Please create Issues per your problem for the next time.

Hmm, I thought this is an issue in Tweaks but seems like not. /org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/titlebar-font is set to Cantarell Bold 11 but there is no such font in the system and thus it shows "None":

The title font setting isn't used anymore since decorations are drawn client side. The title font is set by the Stylesheet these days

Making the default font size 10 is vital for 1920x1080 displays.
