I love using awesomewm with Arch Linux because of its minimality, but I use Lubuntu only because I cannot configure fonts to look good in Arch as in Ubuntu, tried ubuntu fontconfig packages but no luck.



try infinality from aur (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freetype2-infinality/) way better fonts than ubuntu, and couldn't be easier.


This. Running Debian with the infinality patches and it's a big difference. It's easy to build as well.


But this is orthogonal, and 'good design' should give us a DE independent way to ensure the right fonts are there with good font rendering settings.
