Font on obsidian/some based apps on electron is blurry or not crispy enough. Obsidian use grayscale instead subpixel rendering.
OS - Windows 10
Left - just notepad. Right - Obsidian.
Here’s a possible solution to the problem.

Same problem. I also use Windows 10
Hi, same problem here with Windows 10, but not with Manjaro Linux up to date.
Is this something that developers should implement or I can change something anywhere?
Please, tell me what to do. I can’t use Obsidian on Windows because of that, the blurry font won’t let me use. I have already tried everything on “how to fix blurry font on window 10” but nothing changed.
Thanks
I am on Win10 and I don’t have this problem. What’s your screen resolution?
Default 1080x1920. I don’t think it’s a screen resolution, the electron recognizes the problem and a possible solution at the very beginning. Can you please attach an enlarged screenshot, I’m surprised you don’t have such a problem.
What is your screen size?
Anyway, we’ll have a look into this.
24 inches. I use obsidian in full screen, sometimes not. i tried to change windows and nvidia settings to get subpixel rendering, but everything stays in grayscale.
i tried to use property “-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased;” nothing has changed.
Thanks for your attention.
We will try to fix this in a future release

will be fixed in 0.9.21
Posting incase it helps anyone else with this issue:
I found the cause to be FXAA being enabled globally on my computer. I turned it off for obsidian through Nvidia control panel, now the text is crisp.
