Hey all. I’m using arch linux and after trying to fix my fonts to get nicer icons etc. in the terminal i’ve made a mess 😔 Any ideas on how to uninstall all the fonts and start fresh?

    Looks like an encoding problem, not a font problem. Make sure your terminal is configured to use the UTF-8 encoding.

    Most terminal programs come with a profile option, can you try making a new one and see if that resets your settings for you?

    Well I had another go tonight. Uninstalled almost every font. At one point my browser didnt have any fonts. Reinstalled a load of fonts but still my terminal looked a total mess. I then installed Kitty and all my fonts and icons are looking good… So its a urxvt issue. Ill dig about a bit mire when I get some tine.
