Pretendard Font
2 projects | /r/oneui | 24 Jun 2023

A new version of the Pretendard font, a fork of the Inter font, which is very close to the iOS font, has been released. https://github.com/orioncactus/pretendard Looks very nice on my Galaxy S23 phone. #Pretendard #Inter
Popular opinion: Mozilla Firefox should adopt all styles from Fiefox-UI-Fix by default.

Reading bilingual books with one non-Latin language?
1 project | /r/kobo | 25 Apr 2023

Alternatively, if you want a single font specifically as the "supplemental" font to be able to read multiple languages in one book, I recommend adding GoNotoCurrent: https://github.com/satbyy/go-noto-universal/releases/download/v5.3/GoNotoCurrent.ttf
All in one noto font file?

The GoNotoAncient.ttf and GoNotoCurrent.ttf fonts [1] show a lot of scripts seems like the best one for now
[Request] A noto fonts package for all languages. A minor user experience improvement.
1 project | /r/openSUSE | 31 Jan 2022

I also found another solution by using satbyy's go-noto-universal. It bundles up all the symbols/glyphs/languages in a big .ttf file. It does sound like a sane process of installing all Noto language fonts despite bringing some caveats.
