maple "mavica" syrup [6502] @mavica_again@computerfairi.es

are there any options for pixel-perfect no-anti-aliasing fonts like windows did in 1995 on a 2025 #linux system

it can, you just need the font to be in 'opentype bitmap' (.otb) format because the pango developers are ass clowns. if you have a specific bitmap font you like, you can try converting it. Here are some instructions
