why doesn't microsoft fix window's font rendering instead of adding a bunch of useless effects?

pajeets don't care about font rendering. if you want good font rendering, get a mac or just hackintosh.

What's wrong with windows font rendering? ClearType is one of the best things m$ has ever created.
>>61645158
It looks good on a high-PPI display. ClearType can't be used as it relies on subpixel layout, which renders it incompatible with displays which can rotate.

maybe they don't know how to
>>61645194
iOS and macOS use FreeType with hinting turned off
is font rendering the best topic to highlight worthless autists who don't know shit?
>>61646092
this is probably the case
>this is what mactype users think looks good
are they all old and blind?
>>61645158
what is there to fix?
>>61645402
it isn't inherently incompatible, it could increase vertical resolution in this case
>>61646251
Huh?
You'd have to redraw all text on the display every time you change the rotation, and handle the fact that the effective subpixel layout has changed. You'd have to have four rendering profiles depending on rotation, and for that to Just Werk the manufacturer would have to provide a lot of info.
Fine - not inherently incompatible, but impractical to implement. The DirectWrite rendered text looks fine on a high-PPI display (and I say that as someone who primarily works on MacOS), and high-PPI is the future.

I've been reading a bunch of MSDN articles for work lately. How does a company with so many brilliant people consistently turn out nothing but trash software?

It's literally why all these companies release garbage products and the only time they release successful shit is if a dev/small team does it themselves and gets to release it by themselves "for lulz" (which winds up being a successful product/service).
Their docs are sexy as fuck though.
