      I used to do that sometimes back near the turn of the century when font pickers hadn’t learned to put a most-recently-used list at the top yet and you needed to scroll through hundreds if you installed several office suites or other publishing software.

      It’s the worst when I’m not looking for a specific font, just scrolling for something that fits what I’m working on. Lots of those fonts don’t even display on my system, I guess because of my language/location.

        Seems like an obvious UX issue - any collection expected to have more than a handful of elements should allow the user to filter that collection, in this instance probably using a search mechanism.
