[SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

Trying to figure out how or why text is often being displayed pixelated on GTK apps such as Firefox and Inkscape. In Firefox, it seems to only be an issue on some websites where, I believe, it is defaulting to my system font.

Sample of the issue from System Settings in KDE

I'm at a loss here and starting to go mad with all the testing, would love any helpful guidance on common causes for this type of issue.

I've tried just about everything I can find in the wiki and forums, restarting applications or logging in and out each time to test, including:
- Changing default fonts
- Setting specific DPI in KDE system font settings
- Playing with hinting and anti-aliasing
- Disabling bitmap fonts in ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
- Checking for any strange env variables
- Removing xorg-fonts-75dpi (not that it should matter since this is Wayland, right?)
- Adding and removing explicitly installed fonts
- Change GTK theme

I noticed this line in my gtk settings.ini files: gtk-xft-dpi=98304
I tried removing it and restarting, but it returns on its own. Could that be related?

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

I tried removing it and restarting, but it returns on its own.

What if you set it to 96 instead?

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

Good idea, but it didn't seem to have any effect on new applications and the change would not persist after logout/login.

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

Did you also try to alter the xrdb config? ("xrdb -q | grep xft")

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

xrdb -q | grep xft

returns no result as user or root. Also, since this is Wayland I think the issue has something to do with the DPI settings there. Is it possible Firefox/other applications aren't actually using my system fonts due to permissions or something? The text doesn't just look pixelated, it looks like a different font.

Here's a sample of some medium size text in Firefox for example:

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

on GTK apps such as Firefox and Inkscape

Do those run natively or on xwayland?

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

Seems to only be an issue up to a certain size of font.

Here's the heading of this Wikipedia page's heading at 100% in Firefox:

Here's the same heading at 150% zoom:

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

fc-conflist

There're several "20-unhint-small-*" configurations, they affect font heights < 8 *pixels*, but perhaps the calculation is off because of wayland.

Re: [SOLVED] Pixelated text, font rendering broken in GTK apps on KDE

Okay, this is bizarre—Firefox defaults to Times up to 40px in size, then switches to Nimbus (I'm guessing Times is the hardcoded default). Thing is, I don't have Times installed. At one point I installed ttf-ms-win11-auto from AUR, but since removed it while testing. Seems like Times is what's broken and GTK apps are defaulting to it incorrectly?

Still at a loss here. I've reinstalled ttf-ms-win11-auto from AUR yet the issue persists. No clue what's causing fonts to look so /wrong/.
