Font Rendering Issue

I did a fresh installation of my OS, then proceeded installing the usual developer tools that I use (and have been using for a long time).

At some point I must've installed something that messed with the system fonts but I can't figure out what was it.

The issue is that I get question marks rendered instead of characters in certain places/apps like the system information app of OS X or the browser rendering a website. Please see attached screenshots as examples.

What I'm looking for is a way to fix the font rendering without reinstalling the system completely.

Any help will be appreciated.


Below is a browser example of how the fonts are messed up:




And here the black/yellow boxes are just me redacting potential PII, question marks are the issue:
