For years I've used this to run Chrome/Chromium:

FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=truetype:interpreter-version=35 chrome

This no longer works in Chrome 136.0.7103.59 (Official Build) (64-bit). Does anyone know why? How to get back the old behavior? Here's what I'm talking about: Chrome 136 font rendering with Freetype's overrides

Chrome 136 font rendering with Freetype's overrides

It's also discussed here and here's the corresponding bug report .
