Well, according to the release notes the default setting on Windows
should be "gasp" and on Linux should be "on", If you switch it to "gasp"
on Linux then the anti-aliasing is gone.
On linux the rendering is also affected by the desktop font hinting
policy, which (I do not know why) at least on Ubuntu is set to "Slight"
If you set it to "Moderate" or "Full" the whole Linux UI got a better
look including NetBeans fonts.
(Of course you need to use fonts which provides hints.)

I've found this answer on stackoverflow
<https://stackoverflow.com/a/26882303/57441> suggesting to set
-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=gasp. This setting seems to completely
disable font anti-aliasing for all the UI elements, but to me it looks
better than the other options. The anti-aliasing of the editor and
output window fonts still doesn't look as good as it used to, but it's
definitely usable.

the difference between using Java 8, Java 10 and (Java 11 +

I've just tested with Ubuntu 18.10 on Gnome 3 desktop.
NetBeans is kind of ugly even with the recommended settings.
Using Unity Desktop it looks as gorgeous as before. In order
to look consistently good, you need to use something else than
GTK LAF. Darcula works well.

better, but still not enough for my daily work. Except for
the tests, I'll stick with Java 8 or 10 for now.

I realise there are some open JDK bugs, but are we sure
how much is
JDK? There's a lot of stuff going on in o.n.swing.plaf -
just
wondering if there's stuff going on in GtkLFCustoms
that's making
assumptions that no longer apply with GTK3?
