While that's understandable, I just checked and on a stock Samsung flip 4 I can change my font in the system settings - though admittedly it looks like it requires an APK from the Galaxy app store, which I have disabled, but still, it is an option for changing fonts.
Though I am not really one to worry about fonts, so I could be wrong about how important they are.
Other than that, I can customize pretty much anything I have wanted to a similar degree to Nova launcher, though there are a few bugs related to saving widget layouts.
Samsung in particular I think does have font settings but many others don't. I'm on a pixel 3, and will probably get a zenphone 10 or fariphone next, and I don't believe any of them have a ROM that supports custom fonts. But certain launchers support them, like lawnchair. I mostly just meant that in regard to their likeliness to add the other niche customization features I need. It seems like a genuinely fantastic launcher, I just really like making stuff and wouldn't be able to recreate my current setup, which would such given how much time and energy I've put into it

Technically there isn't a launcher that has all of what I want, even ignoring my desire for it to be open source, since nova doesn't have font options. But it's definitely a bit of a bummer I just wouldn't be able to make the same kinds of stuff if I switched to a FOSS launcher. Which is why I say maybe I'll switch when I decide to make a totally new setup, but I think I'll be on this one for a long time, it has a massive number of helpful functional elements that make it easier to manage things like my sleep disorder, and building up all the same functionality again in a totally new design would take ages
