After having upgraded Ubuntu, I had the problem where Ubuntu was stuck in a login loop. To try fix it, I used answers from Ubuntu gets stuck in a login loop.
Now, when I try to start up Ubuntu, where the login screen would usually appear, I have a full black screen with white fontconfig warnings:
# Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

I do have access to a full screen command-line. Many people suggested the commands:
mkdir -p $HOME/.config/fontconfig
mv $HOME/.fonts.conf $HOME/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
however, it says
mv: cannot stat '.fonts.conf': No such file or directory.
I also tried editing the /etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf file as root:
sudo nano /etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf
and changed the line that says
<include ignore_missing="yes" deprecated="yes">~/.fonts.conf</include>
to
<!-- <include ignore_missing="yes" deprecated="yes">~/.fonts.conf</include> -->
I rebooted Ubuntu and the same Fontconfig errors are present.
How do I fix this?
