>... in mac it defaults to render everything tiny as ants. I'm a fan of no DPI scaling (100%) at 4K, at least on my 27" monitor. It takes 2-3 months of getting used to, but once your brain and eyes adapt, significantly lower dot pitches become completely unusable. The only thing I change is bumping up my terminal or editor's default font size a tad. That said, I'm not sure how people with 24" 4K monitors do it without DPI scaling. I'd probably even prefer 30" myself. |

Correction/clarification: significantly higher* dot pitches, as in lower pixel density. "Completely unusable" was meant in the sense of how it'd feel to return to 800x600 after being accustomed to 1080p. 4K is four times 1080p, so it's roughly comparable.
It wasn't my intention to offend anyone with poor eyesight, or suggest that people ruin theirs. Just that it's possible to get used to really low (dense) dot pitches, and once you do it's simultaneously really enjoyable and weird at the same time.
