Font slightly different on Google Chrome?
« on: September 05, 2014, 12:59:24 AM »
I don't know if it's just me or what but the font on all webpages look different than the standard font. It's really pissing me off because it's very minor, but so minor yet so big that it's really bugging me.

This is enough to make me switch browsers honestly.

Im not using Google Chrome (thank god) but I can imagine my OSD playing up with shit like this. :P

Fucking Google always has to shove their changes down your throat whenever you like it or not.
Check out my Youtube channel with all kinds of cool videos including LP's which I'm currently working at. Don't forget to give feedback as well. ;)

It was in the recent update to chrome 37, It improves font rendering. If you were a font nerd, before this update chrome <37 would piss you off because the font would look slightly off. (I'm not one, so I really can't tell you how it's different) So Knoxed is right, except he should say 'disable' DirectWire, because it should be enabled right now.
