Is it worth it for me to get infinality on debian?

>Is it worth it for me to get infinality on debian?
Not really, just configure fontconfig. It's not that hard. I enabled sub-pixel rendering (RGB), slight hinting and lcdfilter (this on Gentoo, Debian should be the same).

Also install some good fonts. I use Liberation and Noto (big font package including Asian languages etc)

...

why even live

...

My resolution is low but I still don't have a good reason to upgrade my laptop.

you could still upgrade your font rendering.
use something like this in your fonts.conf or customize it.



rgb




true




hintslight




true




lcddefault

Is this meaningful if I already have infinality installed?

uninstall it and use this, you clearly fucked up on installing infinality.

>worrying about the quality of font rendering

Why not just write a page down if you want good font rendering?

OS X Rendering = Perfection

What is this meme?

some people here deal with huge amounts of text every day. easy readability is important for these people.

R8

It is installed correctly. I probably just prefer a different hint style than you.

...

it's not as good as

-Debian Testing(stretch)
-Rebuilt FreeType with subpixel hinting + custom LCD filter
-Linux Libertine, MS core fonts and Helvetica family(stolen from a Mac machine I had access some time ago)

>Installing Japanese fonts..

Android rendering can get the same results as iOS, if you provide the required fonts.

k

I changed my font config and everything still looks the same. Am I supposed to restart something?

yuck

yes, you need to restart x. on gnome it should be default that you restart x with ctrl+alt+backspace

...

holy shit, how'd you do that?

What settings/font are you using? My little japanese characters look blurry compared to yours

Enable subpixel rendering.
(RGBA in some settings)

the latter is probably not needed.. Fonts are Dejavu, Liberation and Noto.

Thanks! I guess I had to put it in local.conf instead of just enabling it with eselect. Weird

Interesting... so I have to eselect enable dejavu liberation to use them? How are you using noto?

Herp Derp.

How can I fix Windows 10 atrocious font rendering? I use Linux usually but sometimes I need to go on Winblows and the font triggers me.

eselect is a Gentoo specific tool. user.conf can also mess up things, and DEs can override things too.

Okay, I eselect disabled user.conf. Hopefully it uses noto now

There is a way to specify what fonts you want to use. Check out Arch's wiki pages for fonts/fontconfig.

...

The fonts all strain my eyes, the best font is Apple's San Francisco

I did the whole alias thing

> Implying I care about signs I cannot even understand

I feel so edgy atm

...

My fonts are perfect.
Prove me wrong.

...

>Liberation Sans
I'd prefer having the real fonts that Liberation tries to replace.

How do you know if you have bad font rendering?

pic related

basically if they look bad

Thanks to Ubuntu, font rendering is pretty neat ootb

why are your moon runes so washed out?

>Facebook
You faggot

I love Japan period

Posting from my shitblows machine

However I admit KDE has a better font rendering

-Win 8.1
-MacType
-Anonymous

what dis nigga talking about. The print screen button should work. I think you have a problem with your keyboard or binding

wangblows 8.1
jewgle botnet

well done, best in the thread.

Anyone know how to fix this?

this look okay?

nothing installed. fluxbox with gnome installed in the back.

I don't know senpai. That already surprised me. I think it's the Arial font. I changed my browser font to Ubuntu and they look much better now.

Well, I'm half a normie, half an autist like you guys.

>I'm half a normie
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

...

You guys know how awful w10 font rendering is, no need to post a screenshot.

I just cannot switch and honestly dual booting seems like a waste of time given the fact I'd have to use Windows pretty frequently anyways. I hate reading on windows. I hate it. Have to zoom every fucking thing in.

...

Run the ClearType wizard, if it's still bad you can try installing MacType

Windows 10 and stuff

(OP)
Win 7

Lol everything is set to bold.

Using Cantarell as my font, any suggestions?

Meh.
