Description

I've seen this mentioned for years in r/redreader but haven't found a GitHub issue for it so figured I'd make one to track.

There's a range of nice font options available such as font scale but not one to change the client font entirely.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing font-scale setting in the Android app and read how its preference is stored and applied. Determine which screens and text styles the custom-font option should cover, then verify that the selected font is applied consistently and remains effective after restarting the app.
