Bonus Step (for former Mac users) Reduce Font Scaling to Match Your Needs

We received feedback that for users coming from OS X, installing GNOME Tweaks, browsing to Fonts, and reducing the font size from 1.00 to 0.80 may be preferred. Your own display may vary, so note any changes made if you need to revert back.

  • Goto Displays, set scaling to 200%. This will look too large, so let's fix the fonts.

  • Install with:

sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks -y

  • Open Tweaks by using the "Super" or Windows key, search tweaks, and enter.

  • At the top, select fonts. Now in that panel, scroll all the way down. Look for Size. Change from 1.00 to 0.80. Close Tweaks. This will vary depending on what you are using for fractional scaling under Displays.
