We appreciate your report. I was able to reproduce the issue. The top action bar of the page presents different characters in some words:

Tested with:

Browser / Version: Firefox Release 93.0 (64-bit)/ Firefox Nightly 95.0a1 (2021-10-11) (64-bit)/Chrome Version 94.0.4606.71 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Operating System: Windows 10 PRO x64

Notes:

1. Reproducible regardless of the status of ETP
2. Reproducible on the latest build of Firefox Nightly
3. Works as expected using Chrome (other browsers display the same characters):

Moving this to NeedsDiagnosis for further investigations.

This appears to be related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1679746

I've pinged jfkthame to get more info, as it appears as though Chrome and Firefox are using the same fonts, so it's unclear why the rendering would be different.

Yes, this does appear to be bug 1679746, so I'll close this a duplicate since we don't seem to have any good workarounds at the moment.
