It's 2025, and the font rendering I can achieve on Linux is best for my purposes: clarity, readability, especially of small fonts. So yes, on a web page, or in a text editor, I do prefer small distortions due to hinting over fuzzy "exact" shapes any day. Text is here to be read, not marveled at. If I need to do typographic work, I can zoom in enough for this to not matter, or just print a proof on a laser printer; no screen is going to have 1200dpi any time soon anyway. Windows 10 takes the second place (I have no Win 11 machines around to compare), and macOS is still only usable on retina screens. |
