User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0
Build ID: 20180531101452

Steps to reproduce:

Visit https://www.futureportprague.com/

Take a closer look at the nav menu.
There's an image attached to show the problem.



Actual results:

The font is not smooth, there are lines over the characters.
Looks like it's not drawing properly.


Expected results:

The font should be smooth.

*

The problem is not the font or some CSS.
Looks like this only happens inside tag <ul> or <li>, others elements are not affected.

I can reproduce this on Firefox Stable and Nightly.
I'm running Ubuntu 18 with Gnome.

Markus, this seems like it might be a case with layerization where something that should be disabling subpixel AA is not? Ideas?

Reproduced in 60.0.1 (64-bit), Ubuntu.
I can also reproduce the issue on win10 Nightly62.0a1 x64 if HWA is disabled.
