Edit: on second thoughts, I think the below seemed to change the situation because it meant I logged into the Ubuntu session instead of the Ubuntu on Xorg session. The bug is simply that fonts look 'thinner' than they should in the LibreOffice snap on Wayland, and it's only the snap that's affected. --- After using `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:communitheme/ppa` and adding the packages there, and then installing `ppa-purge`, removing the packages, and using `ppa-purge` on the PPA, my fonts in the LibreOffice snap seemed to break.
