New comment by andry-dev on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/21429#issuecomment-666272488 Comment: I may be a bit biased (since I'm the author of the patch), but I agree with @mvf. When I made the patch I had lcdfilter in my `~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf` so nothing looked weird for me; shipping a system-wide config file would fix it for everyone. I noticed that lots of people on Arch install the patched `fontconfig-cleartype` package from the AUR. Since major distros use it, nobody complains about their font rendering, the font rendering is actually better with it and the fix is just to ship a config file, I think this is a valuable patch that should be kept. It's my fault for not noticing the need for a system-wide config at the time.
