Sorry for the delay here, but unfortunately the work to be done in groovy updates lead to having less time to study this issue. However, it looks like the problem is present upstream, but our patch is triggering it more.

I share a screenshot of one of the shell bugs in size multiplied by 4.
URL: https://i.imgur.com/d6icrfo.png
I've disabled my extensions for the example, if it helps to better
understand this frustrating issue.
I understand that Ubuntu is free and partly developed by volunteers.
Ubuntu has the reputation of being a stable system accessible to beginners,
that's why I invited a lot of people around me to use this distribution. These
people don't master the terminal ("hold"/"unhold") and don't have the reflex to
come to bugs.launchpad.net. It is therefore possible that many silent users are
affected by this bug and judge negatively the quality of Ubuntu LTS and Gnome
because of an interface problem on the login page and the Shell menu.
It's normal that the fix is long but it's a pity that this "mutter"
version is not downgraded in the repositories while waiting for a fix.
This point is decisive for the choice of my stable distribution and the
one I recommend around me.
Thanks to the developers of the Linux world, no comparison with a
proprietary system deserves to be made.
Good luck!

> How much did you pay to Canonical for using Ubuntu 20.04? How much are you willing to pay to Canonical for a fix? I feel this, and "if you don't like it go use proprietary software," are extremely harmful perspectives. Open source is still evolving, and it's not so much about demanding free labor from Canonical as it is about preventing broken updates from being published to universe in the first place, providing for some sort of rapid rollback protocol when that does happen, or something. At this stage in Ubuntu's life, I think it is a healthy standard to say, "if we break the gnome-shell GUI on every box running 20.04, we should rapidly roll-back that update and/or fix it". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1892440 Title: Shell text is too small in mutter 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1892440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This tendency is childish. If you want warranted security with fast(?) bug fixing, look out for a proprietary OS solution or better contribute to Ubuntu by coding support. Please stop behaving like a child: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_ain't_no_such_thing_as_a_free_lunch If you want freedom of choice, you should better get along with the implications.

There is an easy workaround to this, as mentioned in #17 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1892440/comments/17) Just downgrade libmutter for the time being.

I did just want to add that it seems the update has affected the mouse as well. Transitions between windows seems to occasionally disable the mouse click momentarily. This is an issue in dragging and dropping, which will occasionally cut out or display unpredictable behaviour.
