@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) Did you set the dconf entry org.gnome.desktop.interface.monospace-font-name to "monospace"? 19:24:38

@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaI didn't, but yeah I guess that should be using my configured fontconfig font. But no that uses the default(?) monospace font. Which is better than no monospace font, so I'll take it for now.07:15:53
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaI should add that I think all apps affected are Flatpak apps.07:16:07
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaactually no, Fractal isn't 🤔07:16:32
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) oh, but i thought you were setting default monospace using fontconfig 15:47:52
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaI was. Or am rather. I think that isn't working anymore actually. 15:57:44
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaSince I noticed that all apps use the wrong font when I set it to monospace. Not just the GNOME apps. 15:58:03
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaSo I guess the home manager module for fontconfig isn't working / is not taking effect at least. 15:58:27
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaAsking in the home manager channel... 16:05:08
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) Why not use the systemwide fontconfig? 16:24:48
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) e.g. this is what i have:
  fonts = {
    packages = with pkgs; [
      inter
      nerd-fonts.fira-code
    ];
    fontconfig.defaultFonts = rec {
      serif = [ "Inter" ];
      sansSerif = serif;
      monospace = [ "FiraCode Nerd Font" ];
    };
  };
16:25:23
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaBecause I use a custom font and had issues with injecting that system wide before. But it's been over a year since I wrote this config, I can try again. 16:26:16
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) I don't understand what you mean 16:28:57
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)You mean, its not from a nix package?16:29:02
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaIt is, but not from nixpkgs16:37:18
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaI package it myself 16:37:22
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaIt's a commercial font 16:37:32
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) should be fine still 17:14:40

@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaI have a fun new bug12:27:31
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaNot sure if this is NixOS specific, maybe somebody knows: When I open ddterm, a shell extension that opens an overlay terminal, and then close it again somehow in Electron and Java apps (or at least not Adwaita apps; maybe it's just in XWayland apps?) the last key I held while closing ddterm is stuck12:28:28
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaso for example, I open/close the terminal with CTRL+^. If I close it now, VSCode just spams ^ until I hold and release ^ again12:29:02
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparafound it, mutter bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/441612:53:32
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparafixed in mutter 49.212:54:21
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaIs there a PR that includes mutter 49.2? Otherwise I'd open a PR12:54:59
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparais it even OK to update mutter on it's own or would that require other packages bumped as well? I'll just try for now.13:01:42
