      Hello everyone

      The font for the UI in Gmail is very jagged in Vivaldi on my one computer. It looks normal on another computer that has the same version of Vivaldi installed. I'm not sure if this is a Vivaldi issue, but does anyone know how to fix this font issue? I attach two images that show what a Google search result looks like (the font looks normal) and what Google's UI looks like (very jagged font).

      I tried installing Product Sans and Roboto but that doesn't fix the problem (then again, I have no idea really what font the Gmail UI uses, so these were just guesses).

      Alternatively, do you know of a way to tell Vivaldi to use a different font than the one that the website specifies? Or perhaps trick the computer into deliberately misidentifying a font so that when Gmail loads font X, it loads the fake font X which then displays font Y.

      Thanks
      Samuel

        @ugcheleuce I guess your Windows has no Settings for ClearType activated.

          @DoctorG Correct, I work with ClearType disabled. I suppose it's just one of those things: Google (among with some other websites) is now also using a font that only looks legible with ClearType enabled.
