Apple Vision Pro is now available in the U.S.

Weird Google text issue

I have a strange issue that so far I have only noticed when performing a Google search, which is that the text on the first search result looks very strange ... almost like some sort of faux-Medieval font ...


I am a total idiot when it comes to computers and just want to be reassured it's not some sort of virus, and just a harmless bug?


I rarely visit websites aside from basic internet shopping and some gaming. I have not been on any "naughty sites" or downloaded any pirate videos etc ...

Thank you.
