"the visual glitch is completely random and not caused by any user actions, although highlighting the text should fix it (at least until it happens again). It's caused by an upstream Chromium bug, and we received the fix for it from them earlier this week, so it should make it into the next Dev release."
I'm also seeing corrupted text, in my case in almost every Word document I open in the web app. Verified it's still present in today's update (81.0.410.1)

HotCakeX, Limyx826, @Bruce_Lowekamp @Steve Whitcher : Thank goodness it's fixed. I was also worried it might be a hardware issue. So far, no more scrambled text on Dev 81.0.410.1.

Mike Glenn I have scrambled text on this version. It is probably not included?

VladislavKosev, looks like I jumped the gun. I just read through the 81.0.410.1 is live post and realized the fix hasn't been released yet. I updated to Dev to 81.0.410.1 and rebooted this morning. I haven't seen scrambled text all day so far, whereas it was happening frequently last night.
Out of curiosity, have you rebooted since noticing the scrambled text? It'll be interesting to see how long I can go before seeing the glitch again.
