| And still no proper gamma correction.. wich makes the whole thing useless, specially on low-DPI screens Nobody does it properly on linux, despite freetype's recommendations.. a shame.. https://freetype.org/freetype2/docs/hinting/text-rendering-g... It's even worse for Light text on Dark backgrounds.. text becomes hard to read.. GTK is not alone Chromium/Electron tries but is wrong 1.2 instead of 1.8, and doesn't do gamma correction on grayscale text https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/53... Firefox, just like Chromium is using Skia, so is using proper default values but ignores it for grayscale text too.. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1882758 A trick that i use to make things a little bit better: In your .profile: export FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="cff:no-stem-darkening=0 autofitter:no-stem-darkening=0 type1:no-stem-darkening=0 t1cid:no-stem-darkening=0"

> Various font-related flags I found in solving for blurry fonts on wayland
Is there an environment variable to select Wayland instead of XWayland for electron apps like Slack and VScode where fractional scaling with wayland doesn't work out of the box?
