I'm a writer who's recently switched to Ubuntu mainly because of its amazing font rendering. I've tried other distros like Artix and Void, but no matter what fonts I installed, the text was still hard to read. Ubuntu gives me those sweet, crisp fonts that make my writing enjoyable. Is there a way to bring Ubuntu's font usability over to other distros I prefer, or am I stuck with Ubuntu forever?

You can just download the Ubuntu fonts! They’re pretty easy to find, just do a quick search for 'Ubuntu fonts' and you should be good to go.
Every distro generally has similar font availability; it just takes a bit of effort to install and configure them. On my Fedora setup, for instance, I have a ton of fonts available through RPMs, which makes installation a breeze when I need something unique!
I feel you! Most Linux distros have similar font options and rendering can be hit or miss. I've found that while MacOS is great for fonts, you can improve your experience by tweaking your settings. Try looking into font management tools or installing additional font rendering libraries for your preferred distro, it might make a difference!
Yeah, it might not be the fonts themselves but rather how they’re rendered. You could check out different anti-aliasing settings too!
