Describe what you would like us to do:


When opening https://id.fedoraproject.org/login/ in incognito mode without Open Sans installed, the page is shown using the default serif font, instead of default sans-serif one.
I tried to include a screenshot. I would like it to failback to the sans-serif font.

I hope this is the right place to report it.

When do you need this to be done by? (YYYY/MM/DD)


Not really any time soon, sometime this century I guess? It’s a minor UI issue, and I almost never use the login page.

So, it turns out we are going to be moving away from ipsilon (the application that serves this page) to keycloak later this year... so at that point it won't be a problem anymore. ;)

One of the reasons we are moving is that ipsilon isn't very maintained these days, so the chances of someone fixing this in the mean time are small. ;(

Anyhow, thanks for the report, but closing due to above reasons.
