The interior of our house was plastered in Q3 quality—apparently quite decent (according to our building consultant). The walls appear very even, although the texture varies slightly in some areas. There are spots where the solid components (aggregate – fine sand?) of the plaster are visible on the surface, and other areas that look completely smooth—these smooth areas are slightly recessed (shrunk a little during drying due to lack of aggregate). But only minimally.
Now to my questions:
Is there a filler or putty that has this slight texture, which we could use to cover the “too smooth” spots? I’ve only found fillers that aim to make the surface very smooth—but that’s not what we want.
Should the primer be applied after filling, or possibly before?
We don’t want to fill and sand everything—we actually prefer not to have a perfectly smooth surface.
Thank you very much in advance!!!

There is filler and fine putty. Even the coarser filler can be applied quite thinly, but it cannot be scraped down to zero because it is too coarse for that. Therefore, filler is recommended for what you want to do. Molto fill is probably the most well-known, but they are all quite similar. The pufa that Amazon sells is also acceptable.

Sheetrock Base Filler?
I'm totally confused...

Pufas interior filler putty, five kg (11 lb) bag, 6.60 should be sufficient. Five kg (11 lb) goes quite a long way if you are only repairing small defects. Caution: Always add water to the bucket first, not too much—start with about half a liter (0.13 gallons). Then gradually add the putty powder and mix well until it reaches a thick, paste-like consistency. Once mixed, you can start applying the putty. With some practice, you can mix larger quantities.
Apply primer only after filling and sanding. By the way, a rough putty is a contradiction in terms. Putty is either smooth or ultra-smooth. Karsten
