🎯 Incorrect font image for Gohu & Proggy on main website
On the main website's download page: https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads
For each font supported, a preview image is also provided. However, for some bitmap fonts, mainly Gohu and Proggy, the preview is clearly not how the font look like.

My thoughts on why it happen
Probably some font rendering issue when generating these previews.
