This is not a frivolous issue.
There are many fonts available on GNU/Linux but the only font
that I continually select for all my GUI apps and even virtual
terminals is the Liberation family:
https://github.com/liberationfonts/liberation-fontsIMO, the Liberation fonts are the best and every other font
seems quite ugly or unsatisfying in comparison.
Liberation also has extensive Unicode coverage but that is
not the main point of concern.
To me, this is unusual. Why should one font family be so
far ahead, aesthetically speaking?
Surely there are other candidates but I have found none
that appeal to me so greatly as does Liberation.
What are the experiences of others? What are YOUR favorite
fonts for general application use, especially in word processors
or text editors?
I am tempted to exclude all the dozens of GNU/Linux fonts
except for Liberation. Do you feel the same?
