hi @JWVerzijden and thank you for the detailed bug report. I was able to reproduce the issue on Linux with Firefox and will notify the team.

I found this thread via a Google search after encountering the same thing. Weird jagged font rendering for the Cursor Gothic font. Seeing this on Chrome 142.0.7444.162 (latest at the time of writing) on Ubuntu 24.04.

Update: I found a workaround. If you use the following CSS (I’m using a browser extension for this) it returns font rendering to normal.

*{
text-rendering: geometricPrecision;
}
