Description

In the feed card redesign ticket, we set the article title font-family to serif, which works for every language.

But in WebView, we can notice that the article title is still set to a default font-family in Chinese, Japanese, or other non-Latin characters.

In English or other Latin characters, the title shows in the correct font-family, e.g. (serif or sans-serif).

It would be great to find out the default font-family for non-Latin characters and also find out a proper way of setting the font-family in Webview.
