Looks to me like that's the same font, just being displayed as bold, as requested. This was added in #109, #10498, and there's a setting to disable it in progress in #10648.

I have attached screenshots showing the difference from actual Fira Code Bold and the bold displayed when in WSL. I'm sorry if it was't clear enough:

Wait but the point I'm trying to make is that those two screenshots are showing the same font - just with different font weights. For example, here's the same output, but with Ubuntu Mono:

printf "\e[97mthis text is bright \e[mthis text isn't\n\e[1mthis text is bold   \e[mthis text isn't\n\n"

maybe with a better scheme:

The first line, the text is rendered like it was in 1.9 - without the bolding in response to 1m. The second line is the 1.10 variant. It's the same font for both, just, bold.

Which specific font are you using, and how are you emitting those lines of text?

I'm using the font "Fira Code" and the bold text in my screenshot was generated using tput. I tried running your snippet and result text for 'bold' is still the same:

I can assure you, although I can provide visual proof right now, that I'm getting correct bold variants for Fira Code in Gnome Terminal running natively on Fedora.

Edit: I'm so so sorry... Turns out I'm using the wrong font variant. Changing the font solved the issue. Thank you so much for your time and attention.
