How does KDE (or is it Qt) font rendering compare?

It supports the subpixel rendering mentioned at the end i.e. rendering subpixel hint out per channel.
Qt6 has had fractional scale early on and still supports subpixel AA. Qt5 near the end of its life got fractional DPI scaling support on X11, but not on Wayland. KDE generally seems to handle scaling better nowadays compared to GNOME.
