Replacement characters showing instead of proper font in notification

[sbomsdorf]

Hi all,

I am not sure whether this is an issue with the Desktop app or a problem with my setup (leaning towards the latter...): In the Finish-day-notification, when trying to close the app without doing so before, the font is not rendered and the windows is showing black rectangles/replacement characters instead (see screenshot). I'd be truly thankful for any hint to either figuring out the real problem or even a solution to it.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Try to close the app before finishing the day.
2. Getting a pop-up notification that should have the text to remind you to finish the day

Thank you very much for opening up this issue! I am currently a bit overwhelmed by the many requests that arrive each week, so please forgive me, if I fail to respond personally. I am still very likely to at least skim read your request and I'll probably try to fix all (real) bugs if possible and I will likely review every single PR being made (please, give me a heads up if you intent to do so) and I will try to work on popular requests (please upvote via thumbs up on the original issue) whenever possible, but trying to respond to every single issue over the last years has been kind of draining and I need to adjust my approach for this project to remain fun for me and to make any progress with actually coding new stuff. Thanks for your understanding!

Hi there! Thanks for opening this up! This seems to occur on some linux machines. Haven't been able to reproduce it myself. Could you maybe provide a bit more infos about your system, e.g. which distro and display manager you are using?

[sbomsdorf]

Hi Johannes, Sure! The distro is Fedora 38 with GNOME 44.10 and display manager X11. The problem is not only with the notification I mentioned in the initial post. Meanwhile, I had an issue with the system time, which I suspect to have caused a notification in the app similar to "there is already an entry for that time stamp" or similar - I cannot tell because it was all replacement chars again. So, I assume that the problem is there for any notification that opens in another window. Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide to help to resolve the issue.
