When I want to change the font, I am met with a trillion different fonts from almost every country in the world.
while it is neat that Linux supports everyone regardless of locale, I only want English US, and the old standard fonts.
going thru Software Manager to get rid of the extra ones is tedious, is there some way I can shortcut this process?
and while I am at it, why not remove all of the Language packs that I can't read, which is all of them except for English....
sorry folks, I went to a rural school and no foreign languages were presented.... shame.

Trillion fonts?
I still miss Braille in italics and bold and emoticons for the deaf.
