When have you tested it? This kept me off Linux for years, extended use would cause me horrible headaches, but FreeType 2.7 fixed my issues completely. That was released two years ago now, but it's still not on some distros and I've heard GNOME may disable the changes by default.

I'm definitely a Windows fanboy if anything but in general I've found Linux doing font rendering better than Windows. And that's since the last 6 years. Which makes me think maybe it's my settings? If think it's only for Firefox on Windows. Would you have any tips?

I have a wild guess. Windows changed the default font to Segoe in Vista, which was released eleven years ago, and you are not a fan. I'm guessing six years is a rough guest or you stuck on XP, or dealt with this problem and forgot you did it years later when you reset settings.

That said, I searched "Firefox Segoe" before writing this and the top few results were from about six years ago when some naming problem caused Firefox to use the wrong version of Segoe. Worth checking on your own.
