Installed AGS and it screwed with my fonts real good.

I'm  a bit lost on this one and I'm relatively new to this. Running Arch with Hyprland and I decided to replace Waybar with AGS (or at least try) so I started with installing the thing. But the moment I did, most of the text on my system changed to some ugly font.

The worst of it is in my terminal, where the spacing is unreadable.
It seems like a fallback, since it shows up just about anywhere that I don't specifically indicate a certain font to be used. Uninstalling AGS made no difference.
fc-list is listing every font as normal too.

I know AGS uses GTK or something, which was basically my only lead, but I couldn't find any solution. Anyone got a good suggestion?

Here's a picture of the text in the terminal, and it being used in the Kate title bar.

Any help is much appreciated.

Can you not simply uninstall the packages you have installed so far?

Unfortunately, removing everything installed along with AGS doesn't help either.
Plus, I'd prefer to be able to use AGS in the end.
