Microsoft did a lot of great work on Fonts in the past. Recently it looked like they abandoned per monitor subpixel-rendering?! In which direction are they heading?

Pixel density continues to rise, but Microsoft might be engaged in… premature de-optimization?

It’s duals/mirrors all the way down. Or up.

I hate subpixel rendering. It's impossible to turn it off for displays that don't need it. It looks absolutely awful. I wish it was never invented.
