Personally, I don't think so—subpixel font rendering still has value even in the densest displays, simply because it triples the available horizontal resolution.
- wongarsu 2y agoBut if we continued using subpixel rendering then 1080p and 1440p displays wouldn't look as terrible, and we can't have that /s
- account42 2y agoUnfortunately a low of newer displays (especially OLED ones) don't have regular horizontal RGB/BGR layouts anymore. I have seen both vertical subpixel layouts as well as triangle layouts or other funky subpixel arrangements. Even if you configure/update your software to those different subpixel layouts the result is not going to be as good.
