I share a screenshot of one of the shell bugs in size multiplied by 4.

I've disabled my extensions for the example, if it helps to better
understand this frustrating issue.
I understand that Ubuntu is free and partly developed by volunteers.
Ubuntu has the reputation of being a stable system accessible to beginners,
that's why I invited a lot of people around me to use this distribution. These
people don't master the terminal ("hold"/"unhold") and don't have the reflex to
come to bugs.launchpad.net. It is therefore possible that many silent users are
affected by this bug and judge negatively the quality of Ubuntu LTS and Gnome
because of an interface problem on the login page and the Shell menu.
It's normal that the fix is long but it's a pity that this "mutter"
version is not downgraded in the repositories while waiting for a fix.
This point is decisive for the choice of my stable distribution and the
one I recommend around me.
Thanks to the developers of the Linux world, no comparison with a
proprietary system deserves to be made.
Good luck!
