Regression

Yes

Editor UI text is blurry when compared to previous Unity versions

Themes

-

How to reproduce:
1. Create a new project
2. Set the Editor Font to Verdana (Edit -> Preferences)
3. Select Main Camera GameObject

Expected result: text in the Inspector window looks highly detailed and easy to read
Actual result: the text is slightly blurry

Reproducible with: 2019.3.7f1, 2019.4.1f1, 2020.1.0b13, 2020.2.0a15
Not reproducible with: 2019.3.6f1
Could not test with: 2019.3.0a2 and below (changing the font in the Preferences menu not introduced)

Notes:
The issue doesn't occur with Inter font

  1. Resolution Note (2020.2.X):

    This is by design. Many discussions had both online and internally about this subject, this is highly subjective and does not mean this is a bug. Some (most) users find it better now than before, a good few have a harder time reading with the newer look, but ultimately we cannot fix this for all. We're going with the better quality overall (newer version).

    This is a fairly important bug for me personally, my sight isn't great and the blurry text gives me problems focusing on the text. The reason I select 'Verdana' as a font option is similarly because it's wider and easier to read. After a public Twitter thread multiple users expressed the same feeling.
