<p>I can confirm that removing Privacy Badger did not solve the issue. I am attaching another screenshot to show that the problem doesn't just affect the text that is inside a webpage but also the Firefox buttons.
</p><p>I really appreciate your help. Thanks you.

<p>Thank you so much for your response.
</p><p>I have attached a screenshot that shows the issue like you asked. It is not just happening inside a webpage. This is happening even to the text on Firefox's buttons, like in the toolbar, bookmarks bar, or the pop up box that comes when i download something. I use other browsers also and this issue is happening on Firefox alone.
</p><p>All my display settings on the OS are default.
I haven't installed any additional fonts.
I am using AdGuard and uBlock Origin. The "block remote fonts" in uBlock Origin's settings is unchecked.
I was also using Privacy Badger but i've now removed it to see if that was causing the issue. It happens randomly as far as i can see, so i don't know yet whether removing Privacy Badger has solved the problem.
