That's my experience, I strongly dislike ClearType, it always looked blurry, even with all the tweaking Microsoft allowed you to do it new became really clear and sharp like on the mac. Sadly Linux seems to have gone the Windows route and smudged the fonts, rather than making them clearer and sharper.

If HiDPI is what made fonts on macOS what they are, then there's now way around it, we have to rid ourselves of none HiDPI display.
