This is about the context in de Plasma desktop. My fonts were set to Ubuntu and Ubuntu Mono and I use full hinting where anti-aliasing is disabled to get crisp and clear fonts. This is now broken in 23.04 and can be worked around using Verdana.

I used to have decent if not perfect hinting on Ubuntu and Ubuntu Mono font, but now the only fonts that still hint correctly are Microsoft's Verdana and Tahoma etc. Not sure whether the devide is exactly along this line, but it stands out. Tried regenerating font cache (fc-cache -rv) but that didn't help.
