Excellent! So this was indeed the issue.

Correct, WebKit's Web Inspector first started getting a list of all fonts some time in Sierra, so that would be the reason this started happening then.

Chrome Dev Tools do not auto complete system font names anywhere, so I don't think they do anything equivalent to what WebKit is doing.


> Thank you so much Joseph, you are amazing!

Sure! We will try to improve this to ensure a great experience regardless of how many fonts are on someone's system.
