First, high DPI screens, are pretty rare, and very expensive.... Or found on insanely expensive laptops...
Most real screens are genuinely 98dpi (close to the default of 96), and we should default to what works for 95% of what people have... which is a low dpi screen... I _think_ Liberation benefits as well... And don't forget about every commercial (grade) font in existantance should benefit from this... If fonts in our repo don't look good with full hinting, then it's not full hinting which is broken... But the font itself... Leaving the default hinting at slight, is at best an extremely nasty workaround... In my screenshot example, I used the menu's as example, but the "Mono" font which is DejaVu Sans Mono, looks even worse on a terminal, it's not ugly, but completely unusable... -- Fontconfig should default to full hinting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
