Ah, nice to know. I used to run more slimmer systems (or
customizable/tweakable, if you like) but nowadays I'm fine with a distro
that has a different approach to the way a system is built so I wasn't
aware of that.

what's exactly the size of the font is, I yet have to dig into GNOME Shell
documentation... But if you have a couple of minutes and google that
snippet of code you will find some posts that explains how it works - or at
least I think so, I can't remember right now from where I took it.

In my setup I can successfully change the type and size of the font used
for the window title using GNOME Tweak Tool. Right now I'm using Cantarell
11 but it works with whatever font or size I choose.
