Sorry @NotHereToPlayGames, I think I was a bit premature saying that the Digital Spy site fonts were all fixed. Although it's all now OK on the main pages, if I go to a forum thread, the header is still the wrong font. I've tried a few experimental changes to the Stylus script, but nothing seems to make any difference. Not a big deal, it's still much better than it was before, but just thought I'd mention it in case there is an easy fix. I'm afraid I don't know very much about this sort of problem.

Right. Oh well, at least the presence of that flag I hope shows an intent by the developer to eventually produce an Un-Googled version of Thorium. Let's hope it becomes a reality soon for those who want it.

I thought at the very least it would have removed the 'You and Google' page in the settings!

Has anyone tried using the chrome://flags/#ungoogled-thorium flag? If so, are there any downsides to it?

Thank you, that has fixed it completely!

Thank you, that seems to have largely fixed the incorrect font on the Digital Spy forum site! It does look as if some of the site is still wrong though, like the 'Sky' header here, which looks as if it's still in the wrong font. All the rest looks now correct. Is that perhaps because it's a larger size?

Just to illustrate, this is what I'm seeing with Supermium, and 360Chrome - And this is what I'm seeing in Thorium - As you can see, the font is completely different. Looks like Time New Roman to me, but might not be from what @NotHereToPlayGames said!

I've had a look just in case it was stopping web fonts from downloading and causing the issue on the Digital Spy forums. That option is switched off though.

Absolutely right, I can't imagine that it's something that I would ever actually want to use! I was just a bit puzzled as to what uBlock had to do with it. Is it something that uBlock would block as a matter of course, regardless of its settings?

Looking at the Thorium performance settings, I was intrigued by this - Switching u-Block off for just that page makes no difference, but if uBlock is disabled completely, the option becomes available again. This is the same in Supermium BTW.

Thanks.

Funny you should say that! The mention of Stylus jogged my memory that I was already doing exactly that on 360Chrome, and have been doing so for well over a year! Strangely though, if I switch off Stylus now the Digital Spy forum site still looks OK, so they've obviously changed something. I've tried installing Stylus on Thorium, and importing the Stylus settings from 360Chrome, but it doesn't work, the font is still wrong. I've attached my Stylus settings file, do you think it's still correct? The site still looks correct in Supermium without Stylus even installed. stylus-2024-04-23.json

Thanks, I'll check that out. I can put up with the wrong font on sites occasionally, but it's annoying when it happens on a site you use all the time!

Back on topic please!

Back on topic, has anyone else using Thorium noticed it sometimes not loading web fonts? I've noticed it on this forum site which I use a lot - https://forums.digitalspy.com/ It looks fine in 360Chrome and Supermium, but not in Thorium, where it falls back to Times New Roman. The console shows many entries saying "OTS parsing error: Unable to instantiate font face from font data." I assume this is the cause.
