This is not a subjective | opinion. Run the listed command on the Feature Page for DejaVu and | Liberation fonts (two of the biggest free fonts). With the current | free-type environment you have crisp, clean fonts.

I admit simply enabling force-auto-hinting isn't enough. we definitely need to optimize a lot to make it more better. in fact there are the case auto-hinting gives much better than BCI-hinting. that may implies there may be more cases to be improved. as you guys are looking at your monitor daily-basis, if something goes wrong, it's easy to realize what's improved and what's worse. isn't this feature a good idea to get such feedback? If there are any commonly applicable rules, it should be done in the system wide way, I mean in fontconfig. otherwise need to do it in the specific way, in the fonts packages. | | It is unfortunate FESCo members blindly +1'd this feature without a | bit | of evidence or thought.
