Fonts are complete crap in KDE

[HBeaumont]

Please guys, this can't be hard to get right. Look at what Ubuntu does.

This sucks

[Dies]

We'll get right on that boss...

I am moving on already. Keep admiring ****** font rendering.

If I might paraphrase Dies:
You didn't ask a question, and the devs don't monitor this forum.

Or, as the posting guidelines say,

Likewise, if you're displeased with Fedora and want to leave parting remarks, comment to the developers using the Communicate links at FedoraProject (handy "jump" is at top of the page). Remember that the Forum is users helping users and that we can't 'fix' the distro itself.

Emphasis my own.

I think I'm a bit confused what is the problem?

I saw the image and for me it looks fine.

rawhide GNOME
Improvement over KDE, don't you agree?

Fonts render much more crisply in the F13 alpha. Unfortunately, F13 is alpha.
