7 i Product Forums to [2]complain about "blurry" or "fuzzy" text
8 i inside Chrome . ZDNet:
10 i > The blurred font issue isn't only limited to text rendered
11 i inside a web page, users said, but also for the text
12 i suggestions displayed inside the address bar search drop-down,
13 i and Chrome's Developer Tools panel. [...] According to
14 i reports, the issue only manifests for Chrome 69 users on
15 i Windows. Those who rolled back to Chrome 68 stopped having
