> can render fonts correctly

macOS font rendering has been worst in class since they removed subpixel-antialiasing. It's now a blurry mess on regular displays.

Good thing MacBooks don't ship with regular displays then.

FWIW, I've had no trouble with Mac font rendering on bog standard 1440p and 4K external displays

I run a non-retina 30" Apple Cinema Display right now. There are some blurry text bugs, but that's super rare and I think has to do with me having a mix of non-retina and retina displays hooked up.

But imo the rendering is still pretty good. Unlike on linux where I constantly see incorrect kerning.
