firefox shows persian font in a very weird way, hard to describe, but you can recognize it if you also use the persian / arabic writing system or anything similar, i dont have many fonts installed, maybe an essential font is missing, names of fonts would be nice or packages.

You should provide a link to the exact page you're on for us to test.

You can check for issues with (corrupted) fonts.

You can right-click and select "Inspect" to open the built-in Inspector with this element selected.

You can check in the Rules tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font-family is used for selected text. You can check in the Fonts tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font is actually used because Firefox might be using a different font than specified by the website.

font family used is monospace which is weird anyways, i think it looks okay for a monospace font but why would it all be in monospace?

What font rules are applied in your case ? Can you identify a rule that could cause Firefox to switch to a monospace font ?
