Typefaces of Notes and Discussions on Profile page don't match
See the screenshot below, which shows the Collaborate tab for Harold Franks GZCZ-C12
It can be seen that the Notes and the Discussions are rendered differently, despite both being Collaboration items (the choice is indiscriminate for many people)
Notes heading is smaller than its own text and in bold to compensate. (I dislike this)
Discussion heading is larger than its own text and is in the same weight as its text - it doesn't need to be bold. (I approve)
Notes text typeface appears to be larger than that for the Discussion. (I dislike this - why draw the eye to a difference?)
To be clear - I prefer the size and weight of the Discussion and suggest that FS alters the Notes details to match.
The dates of the Note and Discussion are handled differently but I haven't thought through whether this is a good idea or not.

I haven't visited this category for a while and was coming back today to comment on a very similar point.
I also see that, as well as this, other points raised previously still haven't been subject to any change.
Would be grateful to @lyleblunttoronto1 for an update on any ongoing work on the fonts, as it will be disappointing if these changes are not improved upon.

Thank you for your continuing feedback. We will see some of this mismatch as components and pages continue to migrate to the lastest version. The font and typography updates will require us to iterate over some of the design and layout of the individual components. This effort is ongoing. We'll try and prioritize the most distracting items first.

Latest version? What will be changing next? I just saw a chance to test out the new source linker. Oof, it's busier than the current one. Hopefully I'll get used to it and figure out what I need to look at and what I can ignore.
Thanks for letting us know what's going on!

The typeface even for Notes does not match when viewing from the Details page and the Collaboration section:
On Details page....
Within Collaboration section...

The Collaborate tab has now been updated to be consistent between Notes and Discussions.
The notes panel on the Details tab will continue to be slightly different.3 -
That's excellent, Lyle. Thank you for your continued efforts in including the ideas of everyday users in the processes in which you have involvement. If only your manner of reaching out to us could become a model for the different teams throughout FamilySearch, there would be a lot less complaints from us when changes are made to other features of the product!
