There were a few issues getting Fira Sans installed properly. It works fine on Mozilla Central, see screenshot. I attached the bug that fixes the issue. In your screenshot its not even using Fira Sans, I believe its Roboto instead.

Similar hard to read/pixelated thin font can be seen on 1.3 for e.me apps.

Mass update: Resolve wontfix all issues with legacy homescreens.

As of 2.6 we have a new homescreen and having these issues open is confusing. All issues will block bug 1231115 so we can use that to re-visit any of these if needed.
