Ever since Linux support came out (2 years ago?), I go to check if they, finally, support “non-retina” “LoDPi” (a.k.a: a regular screen) yet, and sadly no :/

It's an ugly workaround, but if you install BetterDisplay (it's a free tool) and set your LoDPI screen to HiDPI, text rendering looks good.

Oh I'll have to try that. Zed looks woeful on my 1440p monitor when I was trying it at work, which is a shame because I quite like it otherwise.

In what way? I e been using it on my 1440p for over a year and it looks fine. Am I missing something?

On my system (Linux, 4k display without scaling) the fonts look awful, but bumping up the font weight more or less fixes it.

It’s blurrier, all UI elements and text, compared to every other editor and IDE on my machine
