It actually looks quite nice in Firefox, it is hard to read in Chrome though. Maybe they have the one last web design team that primarily tests in FF? :D

I'm curious which OS you're using. On Windows, it looks pretty much equally bad to my eyes in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
Looks good in Firefox on Windows. I'm not on a high DPI monitor, which can certainly mess things up.
Taking a screenshot and zooming in with a pixel grid, the 'i' on comedian is antialiased to 3 pixels in total wide, though the 2 on the side are very light. Firefox is 2 pixels wide, but both columns are dark. Chrome is also 2 pixels wide, but the columns are rather lightly colored.
(Windows' native font antialiasing is amazing, I'm sad all apps don't use it...)

It's legible in my computer. Debian 8, with Firefox, no-script, and ublocker, with 24" screen and a forced minimum font size of something that I don't even remember.
Anything of those could be making it legible. I'd rather trust the opinion of somebody with a more standard system, and I doubt the GP is that somebody either.

It's the no-script. Allowing scripts loads a crappy font. Hurray for NoScript!

It looks good for me in Firefox on Xubuntu 16.04.

awful on mobile safari. and then if you zoom in to read it, a line no longer fits on the screen
