This is the very same post (just a random one I grabbed) in both Chrome and Firefox.
I don't know if I'm the only one seeing the difference, but despite both browsers having their fonts set to Times New Roman size 16, it looks different. I prefer Firefox, because it looks.. sharper? I'm not sure how to describe it, but I would like to make Sup Forums in Chrome look like it does in Firefox.
Is that possible?
Chrom* font rendering was always shit
that's just one of the reasons firefox is the superior browser and chrome is for people who don't know shit like old people, videogamers and retarded hipsters
Never saw an intelligent people using chrome as their main browser
>insulting people for their intelligence
types this
>never saw an intelligent people
Fuck off retard
>inb4 you find some mistake in my reply
>Chrom* font rendering was always shit
true dat, firefox as always had better font rendering, everything looks blurry as shit in chrom*, to the point of inducing headaches (i cant stand it)
>Never saw an intelligent people using chrome as their main browser
im all against jewggle but, fuck you buddy.
being intelligent is not the same as being tech savvy, and even half of the tech savvy folks use chrom* in one way or another, to our demise.
If this is a recent change you notice it could be you have e10s enabled with the latest FF, it does change font appearance at least for me.
Grammar is correlated to intelligence? How so?
Yup i've some problem with plurals as english is not my native language, in particular for irregular words, you got me
Still better than shilling for the browser that's killing the free web
Fair enough
Intelligent, informed people don't use google
There was a time when it was a great company (or maybe just too small to hide all the shit) now is a giant too big and powerful to be trusted with anything and we still give them every bit of our life
This fucking captcha man, they are everywhere, it's sickening
>Defending a browser that has two separate URL/search boxes
It's the year 2016
Since this is the only Firefox thread around I might as well ask here. Is there any way to force enable e10s on Firefox 48? about:support says that it's disabled because of addons for me.
>true dat, firefox as always had better font rendering, everything looks blurry as shit in chrom*, to the point of inducing headaches (i cant stand it)
holy crap this
Years ago I messed up a setting in compiz and it made every window very very slightly blurry. Chrome reminds me so much of that buggy blurry compiz that I thought I had screwed up some compositing setting again. But no, it's just chrome.
>using a browser with combined URL search boxes so that anything you type automatically gets sent to google
It's like walking through a stockholm's syndrome museum. They've been brainwashed into thinking that having every keystroke instantly sent away is a good thing. No wonder Sup Forums is filled with W10 shills with people like this
These kind of differences appear between different methods for rendering the browser: hardware accelerated or just software.
Identify which browser is doing which and enable or disable hardware acceleration accordingly in Chrome (if it's possible).
yes my friend

>thinking font rendering differences are caused by what's being used to render them
what is Sup Forums coming to
Thanks, that worked.

Clearly you don't remember years ago when Firefox introduced hardware acceleration that everyone and their mother whined about changed fonts.
>being this autistic
No browser uses DirectX for rendering. No browser uses DirectX for anything.
Update your chrome dickhead
It hasn't look like that since 2014
Um dude. That's a totally different text renderer. Ofc it's going to change. But if DirectX worked on both GPU and CPU, it would look the same when rendered on either.
How can anyone be so wrong? You're lucky this is an anonymous forum and you can continue shitposting and look entitled while only affecting the reputation of the board.
Here are some chromium bug-tracker issues related to DirectX HWA rendering:

That's on windows. Nobody with a brain uses windows.
Put those goalposts down.
Nice argument.

Mactype doesn't work anymore on win10 au, anyone managed to get it working?
Keyword is:
>it would look the same
Reality: it should look the same, but there are differences.
>what is the customize button
are you some kind of normie?
I want the browser to just werk, moron.
Oh god what did they do to the URL typing UI in Firefox 48
It now stretches the entire window, instead of being from the URL bar only
yeah, been like that in aurora for a while now, they should have let it be the size of the urlbar instead. the text is still aligned with the bar itself, there is just massive (amounts) of whitespace on each side now
Weird, in my machine Chrome has better font rendering
I use infinality though
