I'm the same exact way. I'm gonna give Avenir Light a try, but I'm sure I'll end up right back at Ubuntu Titling. LOL.

Haha yup that's pretty much my experience at changes fonts. Try something new but end up back at Ubuntu titling. Although I must admit, since updating to iOS6 I haven't used bytafont.
 
Is there another way to get Avenir besides through insanely? Isn't that repo shady?
 
Source sans Pro light + regular

Maybe try reinstalling? Installing the "Avenir Light" package from the insanelyi repo gave me both Regular and Light in BytaFont. Currently rocking regular now.

Insane repo! Thanks for the heads up. I'm sporting Avenir now too :D And, I'm very selective with my fonts. This one is definitely top notch for viewing on an iPhone.
 
Jaku Font?

I have the Jaku theme installed which is by far my favorite theme, which font, your opinion, best matches the style of the Jaku theme?

I would highly recommend removing the repo as soon as you have the font. It kept trying to boot me to some app in the App Store from within the repo in Cydia. Removed the repo and resprung and I was fine, but it seems like it was trying to do some things with my phone I'd rather it not be doing.

I just switched to Merge Regular after I saw this post.

Hahah me too! As soon as he posted those pics and I saw that font, I immediately asked him what font he was using. I love it. I normally don't care for fonts because I always use Ubuntu Titling. But that font jumped out at me. Merge Regular might be replacing Ubuntu Titling as my main go to font...I never thought I'd say that either lol

Its a great, clean, easy to read font. Props to that poster for sharing!

Here are the subtle differences between the two above listed fonts:

Ubuntu Font:

The two font almost appear the same, the first being slightly highlighted.

That top one is Ubuntu Titling which is different from Ubuntu. Compared to Merge Regular some letters (e.g. u, a, g) are more rounded in Ubuntu Titling which does give it a different overall appearance.
