Woops, wrong thread. Below message was intended for the cloud e-mail I think?
Sorry for spamming everyone this afternoon. I've been a bit out of touch.

Just chiming in again. I wasn't able to participate in the naming of Fedora 20 but I
LOVE it.
Best name yet :) P.S. Can't wait to fire up a brand new Fedora 20 stick--- it
might be a few
weeks though. Until then I am living vicariously through your conversations....

And which style of rendering you prefer depends on your vision,
personal preference and prior experience with rendering on
other systems.
The standard on what you or I want is irrelevant. Windows, Mac and the mobile platforms
iOS/Android define the baseline for font-rendering and this is the standard for which
web-designers work hard to craft their pages. Relative to those systems Fedora's
out-of-the-box configuration is incorrect and out of place.
I myself am perfectly fine with the way fonts appear out of the box on
Fedora. Maybe I am just not very picky when it comes to fonts.
As long as I have a great terminal color-scheme I'm happy but I also think that great
looking web-pages are also important too.
