Font rendering?

OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed x86_64
Kernel: 6.15.4-1-default
DE: Plasma 6.4.1 [KF 6.15.0] [Qt 6.9.1] (wayland)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
GPU Driver: NVIDIA 570.169
Browser: Firefox 139.0.4 (64-bit)

I know this isn’t a huge deal, but I’ve always notice odd…I’m gonna call it “font rendering” but I’m not sure if that’s right. I’m including a screenshot from menu items on Zed’s website

Notice how the spacing is weird?

I don’t THINK it happens in local apps, just the browser (though maybe it also happens in apps, and I’m not remembering?) Doing a quick look at discord and Slack, the fonts look normal.

Interestingly, it looks right/different in the Brave browser (the whole font actually looks different):

Any help or thoughts would be welcome!

Thanks!

New users can only have one embed, but this is what Brave looks like:

(though Brave has it’s own issues, like I lose the tabs when I drag the brave window from one screen to the other - so I usually just use Firefox).

Found that switching to Floorp “solved” the issue. So whatever it is, it’s very specific to FF :person_shrugging:
