Not particularly, but as per the trends.

Well, I can't show you a specific proposal/workaround for you because
I have no idea what "looked wrong".
In general, you can put this into your
$HOME/config/fontconfig/fonts.conf or something to make your
preferable font default:

<fontconfig>
  <alias>
    <family>sans-serif</family>
    <prefer><family>Your Preferable Font Name</family></prefer>
  </alias>
</fontconfig>

Hope this helps,
