Ok, as far as I know the DPI problem starts with M1 macs, meaning the text rendering looks terrible if DPI is < 150.

- stephenr 3y agoAFAIK it’s nothing to do with Intel/Arm swap over. macOS in recent years dropped support for antialiasing because Apple (+ the UltraFines they sold) displays are all[1] high dpi. The other issue with a PPI of 150 is you’ll likely end up needing to use a non-evenly scaled resolution to get things “sized” right, so even basic things like a 1px line won’t be crisp, because it won’t be rendered as 1 solid pixel. 1: Yes I know the 24” 4K isn’t quite the same “high dpi”.
- I_am_tiberius 3y agook thanks. makes sense.
- 3oH2y869 3y agoIs there any fundamental guidelines one can follow as far as PPI goes so that the monitor doesn't look miserable? I am looking for something reasonably large and quality that doesn't break the bank.
