No one says Linux has bad font rendering.

>>58463560
Just use FreeDOS you dumb fuck. The fonts are very clear.

nice rainbow rendering anon
>>
>>58463923
It looks practically identical to greyscale on my monitor desu. You either have a different subpixel layout or wacky colour reproduction.
>>
seems okay to me; using sans 16 i think
>>
Now it looks worse than when infinality worked

Font rendering on lunix and windows is dead tbqh
>>
>>58463560
muh Ubuntu font rendering is way cleaner than my Windows 10, just saying.

Windows 10 fonts look like they're frail and sickly.
>>
Is it just me or does font rendering always look worse on a white background.
Also why does font rendering in a tty look great but looks like total dogshit once you start X

Time to get glasses, oldfag.

>>58464303

>>58464317

Hm, I'm probably autistic for noticing it, but the font rendering appears different if the screenshot is taken through firefox shell.
It's slightly brighter than it appears on screen.

Wonder why.
>>
>>58463560
This looks very similar to the font rendering that Edge has, aka fucking garbage.

Or he might have a shit monitor with a really low PPI.

Nah, it's shite.
>>
>>58464614
Yeah but you shouldn't be able to see that on your monitor. Either you've got a shit like 76 PPI monitor or your subpixel layout is non-standard because you didn't wanna spend above $50 on a monitor.

The shitty rainbow aliasing is designed for displays with DPI too low to properly render fonts.

Its a kludge for people that are too poor to upgrade.

Or maybe I don't have shit eyes.
Here's mine for comparison.

>>58464634
Reading somebody with a 1080p monitor shit talk subpixel font rendering to me is actually hilarious.
>>58464641
>Or maybe I don't have shit eyes.
You might. Take a picture of your screen instead of your monitor so we can judge.

What a retarded sentence, whoops.
*take a picture of your screen instead of a sreenshot so we can judge
