Bold font? #25

I love Olauncher, but I was wondering if you'd consider using a bold/heavy font weight by default—or at least allow choosing a font weight. The left alignment combined with a bold font would give a nice Swiss Style typographic look.

It could also make it easier to read for some folks, especially depending on their wallpaper.

Given who you are, I feel like I should just do whatever you suggest.

I'll experiment with different font weights, show it around and whichever gets highest votes or makes most sense, will make it in the next update. Thank you very much for the suggestion.

And Roboto being a neo-grotesque sans serif makes it all the more Swiss.

I have changed the font weight to what default Android offers. It looks good and visibility improves significantly. Although I have started getting emails saying they loved the thinner font. Let's see how this goes. Thank you for the feedback.

The visibility has indeed improved, especially against noisy wallpapers (but I'm sure that's a combination of this and #22).
