I have configured my new system (Arch Linux) to use sub-pixel anti-aliasing in my `~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf`\r\n\r\nEvery app I have tried so far follows those rules (Firefox, Chromium, Leafpad...) except Kitty, which uses a default grey anti-aliasing, no matter what I specify.\r\n\r\nUsing `strace` I can see that it opens the same FontConfig library as the other programs: `/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1` and that it sources my local config file correctly. But then it seems to just ignore it. Or maybe it turns the glyphs into monochromatic after the font has been rendened? I dunno.\r\n\r\nI'm using the Sway window manager, which is Wayland-based. Could that be it?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/comments/401224066","html_url":"https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/214#issuecomment-401224066","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/214","id":401224066,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQwMTIyNDA2Ng==","user":{"login":"kovidgoyal","id":1308621,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjEzMDg2MjE=","avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/1308621?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal","html_url":"https://github.com/kovidgoyal","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kovidgoyal/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-06-29T01:54:00Z","updated_at":"2018-06-29T01:54:00Z","author_association":"OWNER","body":"@karambaq Shouldn't that comment be directed at Apple, not me? In any case, just to note, the procedure I described above for adding sub-pixel rendering to kitty would work regardless of any changes Apple makes. So if you love sub-pixel rendering so much, feel free to implement it."}}
