Some versions of Electron apparently delete all your bitmap fonts from your font cache and you must use fc-cache --force to get them back. This is insanely annoying if you use bitmap fonts at all.
If you install any .bdf or .pcf fonts, and then launch the official Caprine AppImage (2.59.3) these fonts will immediately be removed from your system.
I also have Upscayl installed which is using Electron 29, and so far it doesn't seem to delete my fonts. So perhaps this is only caused by the old version of Electron Caprine is using? Or maybe Caprine is doing something specific with fonts in Electron that is triggering this infuriating behaviour?
