The stats says the majority of the Snap users are on Ubuntu 18.04 and though I do not have stats on the used JDK, but I guess they are still using either OpenJDK 1.8 or OpenJDK 11 LTS. So I feel for the majority of the users who do not really care what is in the netbeans.conf Grayscale anti aliasing is still better than the ugly fonts.

Agreed. I was asking Glenn Holmer for clarification because he said he was running NetBeans under JDK 13, which includes the fix.

The font fix is already backported to 11.0.6 version of OpenJDK which is scheduled for early 2020. I think this setting can go away with Apache NetBeans 12.0.

Wow, I didn't know that! For reference, below is the Backport Bug Report created on September 23, 2019:

JDK / JDK-8231359
Need to set the FreeType LCD Filter to reduce fringing
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8231359

That means I can close this bug report against Ubuntu:

Backport JDK-8212071 font fix to OpenJDK 11
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-lts/+bug/1815119

Thank you, Laszlo.

John
