bad font rendering in sublime text 3 on macOS Mojave


After upgrading to macOS Mojave the font rendering in Sublime Text 3 is not working correctly.


Solution

  • Just reporting the answer stated here by MTuner

    Apple removed colored sub-pixel antialiasing in MacOS Mojave (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2018/209/ starting from ~28min)

    To make fonts look normal in Sublime Text, add to Preferences:

    // For the editor

    "font_options": [ "gray_antialias" ],

    // For the sidebar / other elements

    "theme_font_options": [ "gray_antialias" ],
