Is this a feature for the backend or frontend?

Frontend

What would you like?

I love the app so far but for me it has a major drawback:
English/latin characters look great but Greek language characters do not show up correctly.
Is it possible to change the font, font-family in some way that Greek is supported?

Why is this needed?

Broad language support

Hi! I'd like to try fixing it, but I need a way to reproduce it somehow. Could you provide an example of what it looks like and some sample text for testing?

This is how it looks.
Mainly the character Σ shows up wrong and unaligned

You can check by inserting the Greek alphabet

I'll try to exclude Greek characters from the font so that they are rendered with a local one instead. It's not ideal, but it might work for now.

You can try updating to v1.24.4 to see if it's better now.
