Is it possible to provide the user a way to configure this, or is it limited to source code only changes?

I find it looks worse and it causes my eyes to react strangely to reading it.

Many other users seem to be reporting they dislike the changes as well.. and are annoyed that Disabling DirectWrite has been problematic ever since the release of 3.1.5.52.

Here's a comparison of how things look on my (older) PaleMoon install:


Aside from some spacing changes, the font renders identically to Cent 3.0.4.29.

And for further comparison, Chrome v51:


Identical.

The sole reason I switched to Cent was because of the ability to disable DirectWrite and keep the same font rendering.  DirectWrite causes me to suffer eye strain trying to read text. No other browser besides Firefox lets you disable DirectWrite (but Firefox is full of a bunch of other issues, and I switched to Pale Moon because of the Australis UI update, so using that wasn't a viable option).

We can't stay on 3.0.4.29 forever; some web stuff is looking for newer Chrome versions and there's improved tech in later versions, so I'm really hoping this stuff can get fixed soon.. it's been nearly 9 months.

OK, we will try to provide an option or command switch to change it.
