Very First impression of 13
Congratulations to the team on releasing 13. While I look forward to new features to explore, I want to commend one small change. I hate the default font on Windows. My favourite font now is JetBrains Mono NL. It used to be that after setting the default font I still needed to set the Output and Terminal fonts separately. Today after installing NetBeans and changing the default font I was very pleased to see that Output and Terminal now set to that font.
I would like to be able to change the fontsize without having to add -fontsize 14 to the command line in my shortcut. What I do like very much is that spacing is well adjusted when a larger font size is used.

I am using "Source Code Pro Medium" size 14. My distribution used it for
the shell, I liked it, so i switched NB to that font too.
best regards,
michael

When I went to change Output & Terminal they were already set. I did allow the installation of NB 13 to access the settings for NB 12.6. I had set the fonts in 12.6 but in 13 the default font was not Mono ML. I suppose that Output & Terminal might have taken their font setting from 12.6. The settings for Output & Terminal are under Miscellaneous in the Options dialog.

I went to Tools -> Options -> Fonts & Colors where I changed the font in the Default Category. I may be fond of JetBrains Mono NL, found at https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/, but there are many nice mono fonts such as Cascadia Code available. When I went to change Output & Terminal they were already set. I did allow the installation of NB 13 to access the settings for NB 12.6. I had set the fonts in 12.6 but in 13 the default font was not Mono ML. I suppose that Output & Terminal might have taken their font setting from 12.6. The settings for Output & Terminal are under Miscellaneous in the Options dialog.

As for fontsize, I just add it to the command line. On my computer it is:
C:\devapp\NetBeans-13\netbeans\bin\netbeans64.exe
to which I added fontsize
C:\devapp\NetBeans-13\netbeans\bin\netbeans64.exe --fontsize 14
Note that there are two dashes in front of fontsize.
