Apparently Chrome has now auto-forced Direct Write on with no option to turn it off anymore..on some websites this makes my eyes bleed. Found an article that explains it well
http://www.ghacks.net/2016/06/06/chrome-font-rendering-google/

Any way to still stop this or are there any browsers that don't use direct write?
>>
Install Gentoo

Simple. Use a better browser.
>>
>>55995421
Find some variant of Chromium that supports your ancient low DPI aliased font preferences.

>the bulk of users will notice the change

Nobody is going to notice this change except a handful of autistic holdouts and poorfags still running XP on a fucking ultrapotato.

>>55995421
I'm on the beta right now, and there's no difference between 51's font rendering and 52's.

forgot pic

seriously, this shit is cancer
>>
>>55995421
isn't there a command line parameter to disable that? you can disable webfonts and aliasing with those too.
>>
>>55996252
The GDI font renderer has been removed from the source code. There's not just a hidden setting.

I personally don't mind it, though. Font rendering on windows is always dogshit and DirectWrite is at least a bit easier to tolerate.

Your Italic bug has nothing to do with this

Well it's never been like this before and appeared just as chrome updated to 52.x

Totally unrelated, sure.

>>
>>55996249
Go into your font settings and fix it, you dumbass.

don't use a botnet browser
Opera for life

>>55996718
Can I fucking disable that shit speed dial?
>>
>>55996718

>>
