Edge adds ClearType text rendering | Microsoft's own font rendering technology
- the difference is that much? do you have a side by side comparison?
HotCakeX okay so I did a side-by-side test on some websites for the whole day, an I must really admit that it is totally a game changer! Surely gives an Edge over other browsers, and brings rendering at par with Legacy Edge.
Check these screenshots (Left is Edge Canary with the flag enabled, right is Edge Stable):

As you can see, there is a huge difference. The difference can clearly be seen on light fonts, as the difference is there but is felt less on the third screenshot from Windows Central. I also saw that the rendering for some reason does not applies to Tech Community after the page has finished loading, so once the feature improves in the future, it will be a great addition.
thanks for the comparisons, those are good improvements that ClearType brings to Edge.
- Not this version is unavailable to me I do not have as much time for kanrek channel, but such an improvement can be a success for the Edge team!
- okay no problem 🙂
