> Has the font rendering improved at all? Yes and no. The Linux default are bad because people lack some common taste in font rendering. The default fonts on most distros are pretty awful. Here's my recipe for the best font rendering setup on Linux, which in my eyes is as close as macOS (tested on Fedora 35): * Have a high DPI screen at 2x scaling * With a custom fontconfig, force the default sans, serif and mono to the Google Noto fonts. DejaVu and Bitstream are ugly. Don't use them. * Copy and install the ttf files from your closest C:\Windows\Fonts directory. Everyone on the internet uses Windows fonts. HN and Old Reddit use Verdana. * And the best for last: disable font hinting. Modern distros default to slight hinting, which is still too much hinting and distorts the font. MacOS doesn't apply any hinting.
