I'm using Brave in Windows 7. Compared to Firefox and Chrome it looks all a bit blurry in Brave, and I think it's just that I'm accustomed to ClearType and Brave seemingly doesn't use the same ClearType rendering, if at all.

@meyesme are you able to show how it looks via a screenshot? Also, I am curious if you have a higher DPI setting (like UI being show at 125% of actual size, usually set for larger monitors)

I have the DPI setting in Windows at 100%, the monitor resolution is 1920x1200. The screenshots show http://www.heise.de with Brave, Chrome and Firefox (I've added the browser name at the bottom)
