How to disable powerline symbols?

I use powerline installed with pip install powerline-status.

Is there a way to just disable fancy symbols, so I do not have to configure any font to make it work, whatever environment and segments I use?

How do I fix the status bar symbols in the airline plugin?

You need to install fonts into your system with symbols like branching, big triangles etc. They are not standard symbols so you need to install a patched font. You can find a lot of patched fonts here: https://github.com/powerline/fonts.

There is a ascii only theme provided by default.

To activate it, set the following code in .config/powerline/config.json.

{
    "common": {
        "default_top_theme": "ascii"
    },
}
