Homepage - Change font size and bolding
The fonts for the balances are too thin, i feel like they need to be a bit smaller and at least a little bold, this is a very thin line and hard to read.
Appreciate your feedback here, Fred. We don't have immediate plans around changing of the balance fonts but we'll gauge a sense of this from others in community here. I'll share if there are any updates.

I noticed that the font throughout the entire system changed when the new homepage was introduced. The new font is smaller and far harder to read, the lines are thinner.

**Key Numbers in Bold**
All I care about is the numbers.... that's the point of an accounting program. Why they are in a fancy new ultra thin and very unclear variant on gotham or helvetica neue light I have no idea... clearly form over function from the designers.
An accounting system is a cockpit for piloting your business, you don't make a cockpit pretty, you make it functional first, pretty second or you put lives and in Xero's case people's jobs at risk. Designers need to take their jobs more seriously.
Senior user experience designers would have understood this... this looks like design work from junior graduates, not a Honeywell, SpaceX or Airbus space flight systems human machine interface engineer...
Get some people who've actual run a business on your team...

New Homepage Fonts too big and too much space between lines. Needs to be condensed so less scrolling is necessary.

Typography - The font weight for the numbers is very fine and doesn't draw the eye so it's harder to take in the important information at a glance. Under the 'Invoices Owed to You' and 'Bills to pay' sections it would be great to have a clearer marker (perhaps a red border, underline or background) on the overdue numbers to make the significance of that figure stand out more
