TRIM(SSD) and fonts on FreeBSD. How to properly set up?

I installed FreeBSD on my home computer, I have never used it before, and in general everything is fine, but there are two questions.
1. Fonts. They are awful. What replacement for Infinality is there? Googling, I did not find anything adequate, in addition to articles from 2009.
2. I also have an SSD, and it's a little unclear to me how to enable TRIM. I read the documentation, I know that everything is described there, but I'm afraid to fake it, with my English not everything is completely clear. There are 2 partitions on the SSD, / and / home, both as far as I understand in UFS, how can I simply and easily enable TRIM with them so that nothing breaks ?

1. As far as I know, none. Of course, I've moved away from the FreeBSD mainstream for two years already, but FreeBSD is a very conservative system, I don't think that anything has changed dramatically. The fonts are terrible. It's true. The situation is saved a little by Tahoma and Segoe UI, impudently poked from Windows, but only a little.
2. It will not work on the root partition. Nothing from the word. Only if you boot from dvd. The TRIM flag, as well as other file system flags, is set by the tunefs command, which requires an _unmounted_ FS. For homework, it can turn out:
# tunefs -t enable /home
There seems to be nothing to break here, this flag means only the possibility of TRIM, nothing more.
