These kinds of browser recreations of old native apps always fails at text rendering.


What's wrong with it? Sure it's way more higher quality but the layout seems... fine?


Yeah, it’s not 100% correct (some margins are off to my eye) but it’s okay.

Some texts on the other hand scream LLM to me. E.g. this label in the Print Code dialog:

> Opens a browser print window containing source only. Browser and operating-system print settings remain native.

This is just not how humans write. In fact, I don’t think a human would write anything here – it’s an implementation detail, not something that should be user-facing.


Ah I got whooshed, I interpreted text rendering literally. As in shaping, kerning, and aliasing haha


LLMs lack taste
