Why did you change the main font of trello?

Overnight, it went from a clean, readable typography to a hiddeously, geaky unreadable serif one. First the color of the ''completed'' card changed, from a darker green to a light green closer to the color of vomit. It doesn't really scream ''good job'' and ''success''. Why? Was this a vital, major decision? When will you be done making uppdates that only make trello worst? I use it on a personnal level, not for my company, and even so every day I open trello thinking: what will be their next thing that will destroy the workflow? 

Is there a way to revert back the main font? No product or app in 2025 should use this font: Screenshot 2025-10-17 115214.jpg

Is there a way to revert back to the old color of completed cards as well?

Agreed on all points. Terrible re-brand, Trello! The font looks old fasion and cheap. Please change it back or allow users to choose their own fonts for the whole workspace.

I hear you. I use Trello daily and noticed the change immediately. It appears to be the hideous "Aptos" font that has somehow become the default in many apps lately. Effing hate it!

Hear us Atlassian. Revert it back or give the users the possibility to chose.

I'm sorry to disagree, but actually I like the new font much better. For instance, it is now easier to distinguish between lowercase L and uppercase I.
To Atlassian, please just keep in mind that people who like the new font won't probably reach out to say "good job", so, as always, feedback posts might be skewed.

We'll give it a week or two to see if Trello allows us to change fonts, but we are already considering setting up a new t2.micro Windows server in AWS to run open source "Kanboard": https://youtu.be/on_8FD3DRKk. Then we can keep our tasks on our own domain as well (https://tasks.ourdomain.com) versus trello.com.
