1. With firefox in safe mode (no addons activated), go to https://www.google.com/fonts

2. Search for Josefin

3. Click on the Josefin normal font


Expected - All variations are visible

Actual - Only 3 variations of the font are visible (see screenshot)


Additional info: Works fine in Midori e.g. and used to work fine on this machine (might be update related).

I've tried the Ubuntu repository version 43, the Mint Rosa version, and Ubuntu 23, same outcome.

Firefox 43 on Mac has no problem.

Chromium has no problem.

Apparently locally installed versions of the fonts conflicted and for some reason weren't displayed correctly. Removing them has helped.
