New font?

[Crashed]

Did the font just change in the Community? Seems a bit bolder.

I haven't installed anything new lately, and sfc /scannow comes up clean.

Game and community forums have noticeably different fonts (among other things, since one is maintained better than the other), and I only recently started noticing that, so it appears they likely edited the stylesheet at some point.

It's currently using "Motiva Sans" on the Discussion page. And any 'previews' use Arial.
But for some totally bizzaro reason the post editor uses "Arial", sounds like a defect in my books, I've been unhappy about how I and l look identical for ages.

Fonts being ugly in steam client has been a nontrivial defect for about 4-5 years already, so they are not likely to listen now.

Actually for me it is looking normal in the Client but different in Chrome.
It seemed to happen after a system crash, hence why I mentioned the sfc /scannow check.

Well for me the native and browser client font being non sizeable problem has always been a #fail, so both look terrible to me, but not seeing much difference. Perhaps native client is using the system font scaling settings and the browser is not?

Start Steam with -dev, use F12, find style information for the suspecting text and compare. Clearing Steam internal browser data is also a possibility if you believe your cache got corrupt after the crash.

It does appear to be browser corruption; it looks fine in Edge.

EDIT: It's a bug in Google Chrome Dev; completely uninstalled and reinstalled it and the font issue is still here. I sent feedback to Google with this page's URL as evidence of the bug.
