We received feedback that for users coming from OS X, installing GNOME Tweaks, browsing to Fonts, and reducing the font size from 1.00 to 0.80 may be preferred.
- Goto Displays, set scaling to 200%. This will look too large, so let's fix the fonts.
- Install with:
sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks -y
-
Open Tweaks by using the "Super" or Windows key, search tweaks, and enter.
-
At the top, select fonts. Now in that panel, scroll all the way down. Look for Size. Change from 1.00 to 0.80. Close Tweaks.
Note: This is for the displays for the laptop only. This will look super odd on external displays and likely too large even still.
