| Gimp UI text unreadable on Mac OS Sonoma |

Downloaded latest version of Gimp (2.10.36) in march 2024 to run on Mac OS Sonoma. It appears to run fine, but it's hard to say because I can't read any of the UI text! All I see are boxes containing unicode numbers.
I have 2 macs running Sonoma and have the same issue on both of them. I've also seen other Mac Sonoma users online reporting the same issue. Seems like it would not be that hard to fix for a Gimp developer who's aware of the problem. I'm hoping such a person will see this or hear about the issue and correct it. It'd be nice to be able to use Gimp on my Mac!

A few weeks ago I updated all the programs on my manjaro Linux laptop, including gimp. Today I used this updated gimp and tried to make some small changes to a PDF file and then to export it again as PDF.
On this latest version of gimp (2.10.36) such an exported PDF file turned out to have 3.7 Mb.
On the previous version of gimp (2.10. 28) the same pdf file with the same adjustments and settings when exported as pdf has only about 475 Kb.
Everyone can probably replicate the same thing if you open a smaller PDF file in gimp 2.10.36 (let's say around 400 Kb) and even without any changes export that same file as PDF. The exported file will be significantly larger than the original. However I presume that this might happen only with PDF files that contain scanned images. I haven't experimented with plain text PDF files.
I wonder why this change was introduced into the latest gimp version which is available for the installation on manjaro (2.10.36)? It doesn't make sense to have a significantly larger file which is not better in any way than the smaller one from previous versions of gimp.
