This font is an abomination worse than Comic Sans.
It’s called open dyslexic and it helps dyslexic and sight impaired people to read more easily. There’s a long discussion about it below.
Sadly, there's no real evidence it helps

Are you dyslexic or sight impaired yourself? I have macular issues. It sure as hell helps me to read. I’m not saying this is the only font that could do it, but but it’s the only one pre install on kindle that does.
I find any of these dyslexic fonts harder to read. The less uniform it is, the more stuttered and slow I read it. I don't have dyslexia though, so I guess that makes sense maybe
i think this is a special font that helps against dyslexia (not proven, sadly)
Anecdote of one, my dyslexic cousin finds it helpful.
i read somewhere that science saids it changes nothing (i have no source at all, sorry)
Lol no worries, an anecdote is an anecdote.
I've never seen it, but I kind of like it. For some reason it reminds me of what text looked like on 16bit era games. Makes me think of that All Your Base Are Belong To Us thing.
