No letter spacing between 'ff' when using Raleway font

Reported by cu.jane...@gmail.com, Oct 16 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to https://shattered.io/
2. See "What types of systems are affected?"
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
No letter spacing between 'ff' when using Raleway. However it does work when applying font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures.

What went wrong?
See attachment.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 69.0.3497.100  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: 

I haven't seen this behavior in other sites using Raleway so it's possibly something else on the site affecting it.

The observed appearance is defined by the font: "ff" is a standard typographic ligature, and the Raleway font supports it, which is why modern browsers display it as such. The other sites probably disable the feature via "font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" or use a different distribution of the font.

Status: Untriaged (was: Unconfirmed)
Able to reproduce the issue on Mac 10.13.3, Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #69.0.3497.100 and latest canary #72.0.3582.0.
This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M60 old builds. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Thanks...!!

This is indeed working as intended as per comment 1.
