I've been meaning to submit this but somehow I forgot. It's the first thing I change when I install Ubuntu for me or others and everybody is relieved when they see Deja Vu Sans Condensed as the default font. It takes up much less space on the screen than the grotesque Deja Vu Sans, it is very legible and, aesthetically, everybody I've asked from the local LUG finds it a much better default font. I understand Michiel's concerns over testing, but not over appearance. Ubuntu looks more like a Commodore 64 with the default font and more like a 2007 OS with Condensed.
Just my 2 euro cents :) -- Please use DejaVu Sans Condensed as the default font https://launchpad.net/bugs/81608 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
