First open settings, then under the *General* tab, scroll down to the *Fonts* section. ![](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/07/firefox-settings-font.png) Here, click on *Advanced*, where you can set different font categories here. Now, uncheck the “*Allow pages to choose their own fonts…*” checkbox, and click *OK*. ![](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/07/don-t-allow-sites-their-font-1.png) Now, sites will load with your selected fonts. 🚧 Don't use this if you are working with graphics and font related things. Because apps like Canva, online Office suites etc. won't show other fonts. --- ## 🤣 Meme of the week A meme that reflects the current state of open-source contributions. 😥 ![](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/07/meme.png) --- ## 🗓️ Tech Trivia Bell Labs held a press conference in New York to show off the first [point-contact transistor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-contact%5Ftransistor?ref=itsfoss.com) on June 30, 1948\.
