macOS fonts subjectively look terrible and objectively look blurry on normal resolution monitors because:

1) No hinting

2) No subpixel rendering

Both hinting and subpixel rendering are things on MacOS. MacOS just doesn’t color the pixel for LCDs like Windows does, because the GUI on MacOS is resolution independent.

It is greyscale font rendering, yes, but it is coloring those pixels based on subpixel information.
