Thin font issue
I'm not sure why but the font is thin in some websites.
the option "allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" is enabled

Is layout.css.font-variations.enabled set to true on the about:config page ?
What font is used ?
You can right-click and select "Inspect" to open the built-in Inspector with this element selected.

You can check in the Rules tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font-family is used for selected text. You can check in the Fonts tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font is actually used because Firefox might be using a different font than specified by the website. If the Fonts tab is hidden, click the down arrow at the right end.

I have used inspect fonts to detrmine the font that was causing the issue. It was freemono freeseirf
