The font selected here is also but-ugly. It was OK for small stretches of text we used variable-pitch until now, but when the entire mode line is using it, it's just too much, to my (un)liking.
Although, on that previous screenshot the comparison was done with 'emacs -Q', meaning it excludes customizations and shows the default look on my system (Ubuntu 20.04).
My actual customization looks weirder how: the font became narrower, see the attachment.
And this effect can be reached with just (set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 110 :family "Inconsolata_dz")I like the mode-line better on this screenshot, though. *shrug* Just not the rest of Emacs.
