"were adopted with almost no complaints many months ago" let me remind you sir that 42.1 users never had (was forced) to use the new fonts, the new fonts came as an OPTIONAL update in early 2016 , because of the following bug report: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=951898 http://pasteboard.co/3pjBb0KoQ.png
here is the full patch details http://pastebin.com/raw/S8eRw3h1
Yes, and the bug was marked RESOLVED, FIXED, and as you can see in the bug, no complaints about the chosen solution
people could simply "Taboo" that update patch and forget about it that is why not much people started complaining, i think that we should add a new optional update that when applied people can get the old fonts back
Marking packages or updates from the official repos as Taboo is, quite obviously, an unsupported action It shouldn't be considered surprising that 42.2 contains all of the updates from 42.1 by default I'm sorry you're finding the new fonts are unsuitable for you, but the solution for you is to redefine your font config to suit your needs, the defaults are the collective choice of the contributors to the openSUSE project and while nothing is ever set in stone I'm pretty sure your personal opinion alone is not enough to shift the direction we've all been working towards together now for over a year.
