Anyone know of a similar comparison of screenshots using subpixel-AA instead of "monoscale"? (it's not really "grayscale" as the color used is not gray).
I know OS X dropped subpixel-AA but, to me, the only criticism about subpixel-AA is long gone: on monitors with low DPI it could make letters a bit blurry in some kind of a psychedelic way.
But now all monitors have higher DPI and I'm devv'ing on Linux only, which does support subpixel AA, and I turn subpixel-AA on where I can. If anything it makes rendering less blurry.
Answering my own question, user "cornellion" posted in this HN thread a link to a site which uses your system to actually render the fonts in order to compare them, as opposed to screenshots, so as my system uses subpixel-AA I can see what they're going to actually look like on my system:
