I recently bought a new Windows laptop (switched from macbook). I noticed that text on some websites looks weird. E.g. text on Jira platform looks squishy, some characters are so close to each other that it looks like one other character. If I open the same page in Chrome, it looks normal. Another "broken" website is Notion. In Firefox, page names in table items are not bold. It's totally weird and I have no idea what's causing it or how to fix it.

[v56+] Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar. Under fonts and colors, press the Advanced button. Scroll to the bottom, turn on Allow Web Sites To Choose Their Own.

Make sure you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the OS settings.

  • We have seen reports that this can be caused by a problem with fonts like Roboto or Helvetica that

you have installed locally and that might be corrupted or are missing some variants. Also, make sure you allow pages to choose their own fonts and that you do not block remote (downloadable) fonts.

  • If you use uBlock Origin make sure not to "block remote fonts".

You can right-click and select "Inspect Element" 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 Font 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.

Hi, thanks for your prompt responses. Sadly, I noticed them only today and in the meantime I switched to Brave (which works just fine) and can't be bothered to investigate this further. Sooo, sorry for wasting your time. Perhaps someone else will find it helpful.
