Dance fonts?

The same problem is on ubuntu 15.10 and 16.04. It is reproducing on my work desktop with nvidia onboard and on my home laptop with intel graphics. Here is the link to screenshot. The glyphs are NOT properly aligned and it is what the thread starter implies by dancing fonts. It seems that the problem is with cyrillic fonts only.

You can see the problem on this site.

As I don't read that language, I don't know ... the only thing that catches my eye is Ещё проекты where the accented e seems to be off.

Steve, there's no 'accented e' nor "е" there.

Never mind the language. As I get it, the letters' height differs.
Well, Yarik, there are such fonts where letters "jump", or at least it might look like that. I wouldn't worry - unless that breaks something...
I guess some sites might make such "dancing" intentionally - to look fancy :wizard:

Nice version about fancy look=) Google play also looks fancy. This is a shot from vivaldi. The glyphs are lined up. This is not a big deal but even comic sans looks much better then this dancin one

Yes. Both browsers say it's Roboto.
