> The text is rendered very poorly in Windows, creating a kind of chromatic aberration around it. Coming from an Apple MacBook, this turned out to be quite annoying, because I didn’t know if my design looked bad or if it was just Windows messing up with it.
I think the OP is describing an intentional feature (subpixel antialiasing). Mac OS Mojave disabled this feature by default because you don't need antialiasing if your screen resolution is very high. The chromatic aberration is ugly, granted, but the technique allows you to get a higher effective horizontal resolution which ultimately improves readability on low-resolution displays. And if you don't need it, well, it can be disabled on Windows too: https://www.isunshare.com/windows-10/turn-off-or-on-clear-type-text-in-windows-10.html https://www.isunshare.com/windows-10/turn-off-or-on-clear-ty...
