Last week we shared a number of updates with our community of users, and now we want to share them here: At Mozilla, we work hard to make Firefox the best
Good points, why not change it and recompile Firefox and see what font works. Then you can submit a pull request for this issue and they might actually accept it
That’s interesting. Last time I did it I had to manually install a ridiculous amount of dependencies one by one, among other things. I will have to try Nixos (or Guix) sometime. Computers are faster now too. I remember taking way more than 2 hours but it was on a slow machine by today’s standards. Thanks.
That’s why I love NixOS, some dude (okay sometimes it’s me) already figured out how to compile all the software and built the binaries if you want them

Have you ever compiled Firefox? If not, it’s best not to suggest that to others. It’s not for the faint of heart.
Anyway the usual fixed width fonts like Courier work, or they could put it in about:config.
Yes, but I used the NixOS “recipe”. I just tell it the new source folder in my config and do a
sudo nixos-rebuild swirch --impureIt takes two hours, but completely hands off
