Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2774.3 Safari/537.36 Example URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf7IEVTDjng Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Install a Windows developer build (14367+) 2. Use Chrome to browse the web, such as Youtube What is the expected behavior? Nice clean fonts What went wrong? Apparently something about the font renderer has changed, or Chrome's interaction with it. Fonts appear jaggy and nasty and hard to read. Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A Did this work before? Yes On release builds of Windows Does this work in other browsers? Yes Chrome version: 53.0.2774.3 Channel: dev OS Version: 10.0 (Build 14367) Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0 This "Anniversary Edition" is due out in less than two months, so this should be fixed on Stable by that time.
