we should know that Noto sans is not small font set, complete Noto sans CJK font set almost takes up to 400MiB(7 to 8 times bigger than other fonts), but as Jang said, Noto sans has many advantage, it gives us chance to select one of many more thickness, size, style and so on without seeing a bad hinting, and hesitating to select another font to see another language’s character. so Noto sans can remove any trivial issue that we don’t have to pay attention. and as we know, hard disk capacity is grown too much in these days, so size of font set does not matter to use our machine with ubuntu and Noto sans :P
of course, again, i meant that, i agree to change to noto sans as a default one, and we would better to give chance to say another opinion to another and many more person. :) so i said that we need more time to discuss about this issue. if many person says “hey! i’m also agree!” for this and there is no cool alternative way or thing to display linguistic characters, it’s ok. go ahead for the Korean. and Thank you Jang for giving valuable opinion! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581160 Title: Switch to Noto Sans as default font for Japanese and/or Korean? Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Ubuntu 16.04 Noto Sans CJK is the default font for rendering Chinese. After having struggled with a few issues, I believe that we finally achieved the desired improvement of the rendering experience. So now I ask: Is there an interest from Japanese and Korean users to consider a switch to Noto Sans? (The fonts are already installed for all users on Ubuntu 16.04.)
