I've been digging and searching the web for an answer to this, but to no avail. What is causing this:

As you can see, it makes it hard to read numbers. Setting Firefox to safe mode does not fix it.

A bit more info, though this is clearly not a fix.

Disabling the font for the top bar made things normal again:

  • What happens if you override the font for "Latin" and *don't* allow pages to choose their own fonts? – pomsky May 30 '18 at 07:53
  • As the example comes from stack exchange I don't think that this page is overriding fonts with emojis. – muclux May 30 '18 at 08:14
  • It has nothing to do with which site I use, or whether it uses custom fonts. It's also weirdly inconsistent, as sometimes (on the same site) it will work just fine without doing this. – RolandiXor Jun 02 '18 at 03:53
  • Can you give us a list of plugins you're running on firefox? Maybe even userscripts? – Videonauth Jun 07 '18 at 00:12
  • @Videonauth it wouldn't make a difference. Like I said, even running in safemode doesn't fix it. I even tried creating a new profile - that didn't fix it. – RolandiXor Jun 07 '18 at 04:01

I found the problem - emojione. I was tipped off by a suggested question in the sidebar of this question: EmojiOne Color font doesn't replace black and white emoji font in Firefox or Chrome

While the demo page doesn't show these number emoji, I did notice some of the other symbols were there. Removing the emojione package has returned my numbers to normal.
