Help a Dummy make a Dummy

[adawalli]

I have the M1 Max processor on my 2021 Macbook pro. I have an external display where the font looks just terrible

My 4k monitors look beautiful. Is there some HIDPI trick using betterdisplay that will help fix my issue? I have tried making a dummy of my display, but I just can't seem to figure out how to make any improvements. Thanks so much

Hi there, I don't think you can do much about that. I don't know the display size, but probably it is a low PPI display. You can try enabling native smooth scaling and set the resolution to 99% using the slider, that will activate a HiDPI display which will be almost 200% supersampled - but that will help with screenshots and accessibility zooming in terms of clarity + you might find the supersampled/antialiased text to look better compared to what it was before, but it simply won't be as crisp as displays with 2x the PPI (pixels per inch) count (more pixels in a certain space means more clarity).
