Broken font in Hachikuji in Chromium

[perelem-901]

LRR Version and OS

Lanrargi version: v.0.9.50 (bug also existed on the previous version). Installed via docker.

OS: OpenMediaVault 7.7.5-1 (it is based on Debian 12)

Client OS: LMDE 6 Faye

Client browser: Chromium 140.0.7339.80 (also reproduces on Chrome 140.0.7339.80)

Bug Details

Most text in LRR is wavy (see screenshots).

I noticed this after reloading server with LRR, but I also updated stuff on my PC a few days later and I think I didn't check LRR in-between so maybe it broke because of update.

Text not affected:

• log entries
• category buttons

Bug can only be reproduced in Chromium and Chrome. I tried Firefox on same computer and tried Chrome and Firefox on mobile and could not reproduce the bug.

It is entirely possible that the problem is in my system and not in LRR, but I couldn't find anything relevant on the internet. Any tips would be appreciated.

Matching Logs

There is nothing relevant in logs, but I attached them anyway just in case.

If I remove "Geist", from font-styles on those elements, everything becomes normal. If I switch from "Hachikuji" theme, everything becomes normal.

This is an issue with how Chromium renders Geist in your OS; I'm assuming viewing https://vercel.com/font will exhibit the same problem.

I'm not really planning to deliver a server-side fix for this, consider using another theme or uploading a custom variant of Hachikuji that replaces Geist.

1. Correction: the CSS property was named font-family, not font-styles

2. If I change font on other websites to Geist, it works fine:

Vercel also works fine, but it seems that they render it using shapes and not fonts.

That said, I understand that this issue is probably hard to fix from your side, so I will just use other theme.

I can't repro this in both Chromium-based browsers I have (Arc and Edge) so this is probably an LMDE-specific issue... I don't know why you'd only get it in LRR though, I don't think we're doing anything insane with the CSS properties for text.

I'll move this to a discussion so that others can find it but otherwise I'm afraid I can't really help!
