Thank you very much, Patrick! I now had similar problems with damaged fonts
(most often in letters like "l", "i", or symbols like ":" and "." for about
half a year!

Changing the sub-pixel rendering settings in KDE (System Settings/ Application
Appearance/ fonts/) made fonts on my system look great again! I had to chose
"deactivated" (looks ugly) or "activated" instead of the preset "system
default".

The problems often only occurred after I had started a few applications and
used them for some time. I tried different operating systems (Fedora, Debian,
Ubuntu) with different versions of nouveau. With the "nv" driver I newer had
such problems. I'm so glad this seems fixed for me now!
