This post examines the use of the CSS property `-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased` and how it impacts text rendering on macOS. Initially, the practice of using this property was discouraged, as subpixel antialiasing was deemed superior. However, recent updates suggest that subpixel antialiasing is outdated due to changes in macOS. The author tests the property across various operating systems and browsers, concluding it only affects macOS and aligns font rendering more closely with other platforms.
