One thing I noticed is the app doesn’t support larger fonts very well. Kind of a deal breaker for a lot of us. For example the login screen has text that overlaps making it very difficult to read or use.

Thanks for that - I don't really know much about the criteria for awarding the economics prize.

What about the economics prize (I know, not a real nobel prize) going to members of the free/open source software community. Their works have really shown that great things can be built by a community of people, with limited central leadership and without a clear profit motive.
