The reset is reasonable except the antialiasing line. Shame. It was discussed just a couple of days ago on HN.

- iaml 5y agoDo you mean this [0]? Because that post is from before apple's recent changes to font rendering in Mojave. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29328838 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29328838
- phelm 5y agoNot read it? Shame. It addresses that very article
- cunthorpe 5y agoThings maybe be "addressed," but that doesn't make them right. > Apple disabled subpixel antialiasing across the operating system Right, so what is he disabling exactly? > Chrome and Safari still use subpixel antialiasing by default Wrong. They do not. Zoom in yourself. There are no colored pixels. That CSS line basically acts as a `font-weight: -=100` across the document. That's all it does, and that does not belong to a CSS reset. You might as well set the rest of the `font` properties and call it a regular stylesheet.
- cfstras 5y agoI cannot stress this enough: -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased Looks _horrible_ on non-retina (read: most external) monitors with macOS. Browsers have sane defaults for every OS! Please retain them rather than making me install TamperMonkey just to read your blog.
