title: How to fix font size in alacritty?
body: <p>My <a href="https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty" rel="nofollow noreferrer">alacritty</a> config file is in <code>~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml</code> with the following font settings:</p>
  <pre><code># Font configuration
  font:
    
    [...]
  
    # Point size
    size: 10.0
  </code></pre>
  <p>All other font configuration options are commented out. I verified that <a href="https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty" rel="nofollow noreferrer">alacritty</a> is indeed reading this config file using the <code>-vvv</code> flag.</p>
  <p>However, whenever I open a new terminal window the font seems to be selected at random. Below a picture of two windows opened one right after the other.</p>
