Some of my favorites are:

>Akzidenz-Grotesk Pro
Used as default OS font, subtitle font in mpv and document font.
>Meslo LG M
Used for the terminal and as monospace OS font.
>Hack
Used in Sublime for programming.
>Liberation Sans / Serif
Used for Chromium.

With Infiniality OS X setting. Since default rendering on GNU/Linux looks like crap.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Infinality

tl;dr
add infinality-bundle and possibly infinality-bundle-multilib repositories to pacman.conf
then install fontconfig-infinality-ultimate and freetype-infinality ultimate

didn't freetype just integrate better sub pixel rendering at better performance than infinality offered
