Comment (by yawning):

 A few things, by platform:
  * Linux uses `NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf`. I'm not sure why we ship the
 Simplified Chinese version of the font.  But it's legible, though I
 haven't looked for differences/stuff that's broken very hard.
  * Under Windows, there's no fonts configured for Japanese
 (`about:preferences#content`->`Advanced`), the drop-downs for Serif, Sans-
 serif, and Monospace are empty. I have no idea how Firefox handles fonts
 named in Japanese (eg: `ＭＳ 明朝` whitelisted as `MS Mincho`), but I
 can't select the fonts even though they're present on the system.  Even
 the `about:tor` page looks kind of horrible.
  * I don't have a Macintoy.
