Public bug reported: The 3 screenshots are all of the same conversation in my gmail inbox. One screenshot was taken running Firefox Nightly on a Focal Ubuntu install, where the font rendering seems fine. The other two screenshots were taken running Firefox Nightly on a Focal Kubuntu install.
Even on Kubuntu, the font spacing on my gmail inbox looks right on Chromium (Version 83.0.4103.61 Official Build snap 64-bit), but is funky (extra spaces within words) on Firefox Nightly, thus this was first reported as http://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/53474 In Firefox Nightly on Kubuntu or Lubuntu, the font placement/spacing often shifts around, sometimes spuriously, and sometimes when interacting, for example when i tick or untick the conversation as in the the 2nd and 3rd screenshots. Note how all the "t"'s move over in "Opportunities", "Youth", "item", and "interest".
