If loaded from fontsource, all is ok.

Please update google version, it is used by many sites.

Hi @FragsterAt

Thanks for filling this issue. We are about to release a new version, I hope then this hinting issue is fixed.
Anyway, could you please provide more details about the device, browser, and the Operating System of this screenshot?
Thanks!

@juandelperal main reason for this result is that os is win server 2012 and browser is firefox, and it does not support variable fonts in windows <= win10. And default weight of variable version of montserrat is too thin. I don't know, can it be fixed by changing the font or not, but there are many sites that use this particular version of the font, and I often see a similar picture

Relative bug quasarframework/quasar#15639 with workaround (i don know, how they do that)

Ah, ok, that makes sense.
That OS was released 4 years before variable fonts format was introduced.
We will close this issue for now. Thanks
