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.
