Hello,

I'm a bit out of ideas how I can get Firefox to display the correct characters. For reference: https://learnjapanese.moe/font/

Windows: I only have german and japanese locale installed, i even changed in intl.cpl the language to japanese. I have installed the japanese language pack / fonts and it's showing correctly in any windows editor.

Firefox: Second language set to japanese, disabled all addons, tried it on private mode to no success.

Any ideas how I get the characters to display?

Edit: I made it work by changing in about:config the font.cjk_pref_fallback_order-string to have ja as first.

After some further testing: Switching firefox into safe mode fixes the problem, so I did an uninstall and removing anything left over with Revo uninstall. After the clean install, I promptly tried again without logging in, syncing or installing any plugin, but the problem persists in the same matter.

Actually, the resolution was already on the website, I just overlooked it: https://learnjapanese.moe/font/#firefox in about:config, font.cjk_pref_fallback_order had to be changed to have ja as first value.
