SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Lock the screen and take a screenshot with the clock and text being shown. Zoom the image in. 2. Take a screenshot from a big text like the the headers of System Settings, Discover etc and zoom the image in. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Lock screen text is using an inconsistent font aliasing (a colored one), whereas Plasma shell is using a grey aliasing.

Created attachment 139042 [details] Font aliasing
This gets synced by the settings synchronization feature in the SDDM KCM. You need to use that to get the login screen to use the settings from your user account.
Created attachment 139170 [details] Font aliasing 2nd picture Unfortunately that didn't work. I even rebooted the system, but nothing.
Can you please paste the contents of /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf?
This file doesn't exist: $ cat /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf cat: /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf: No such file or directory
That means either you didn't sync the settings, or the sync didn't work. Can you confirm whether you did the sync in the SDDM page?
Yes, I synchronized the settings more than one time.
Ok, I tried one more time and now the sync happened, but the aliasing is still the same. [General] Numlock=on [Theme] CursorTheme=breeze_cursors Font=Noto Sans,10,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Lua, you seem to be talking about the lock screen and not the login screen. SDDM and its KCM handle the login screen.
