Bold and normal weight font comparison
I can reproduce this. It seems to be worse for higher font weights (see attachment). This problem does not occur for all fonts. For the (default?) DejaVu Sans, font rendering is fine. Using Inter or IBM Plex Sans, the font rendering is weird as described. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 479891 *** |
