I have to agree here. Font rendering in Linux is across the board noticeably worse than macOS. I still can't quite understand why.

- TacticalCoder 4y agoAgree with what? That's not the original point. The original point was that Linux font rendering "doesn't come close to Windows or Mac". You're all shifting the goalpost. Nobody is saying that fonts on a retina display on OS X do not look better than fonts on a non-retina display on Linux. What we're disputing is that fonts rendering on Linux is so bad that it's "uncomfortable". Now we may have a discussion as to whether everybody should be using retina display or not but that'd be another topic.
- scroot 4y agoI have a 2012 MBP and two other machines running Linux. I'm not talking about retina displays at all (I don't have one). The rendering difference is noticeable. "Uncomfortable" is exactly the word I would use.
