I use Chromium as the GUI for my CMS. Certain things are better to view with fixed with. But this is broken now.

.FixedWidth{font-family:Courier new,Courier,monospace;
font-size:12px;
line-height:14px; }

and later

<TEXTAREA class=FixedWidth

worked for decades. How to fix this?

Some minutes later, my laptop became unresponsive and I had to restart. Now all issues fixed by the restart.
The TEXTAREAs have again the proper width, before suddenly only 70% of normal width,
FixedWidth works again like ever.

That is the easiest fix I've seen! Great when it is a temporary glitch.

Just right now, it happens again. I am using Linux Ubuntu 20.04.01 since October. Chromium
Version 89.0.4389.72 (Official Build) snap (64-bit)
All input and textarea handled with size or rows are now again only 70% of the expected width.

Last time as it happened I already changed all my web sites and a small part of my software to style=width:
Seems I have to do this at all my software.
This handles at last the width problem.
Only all TEXTAREA intended to have fonts with fixed with are broken
