I'm using PICO-8 on a MAC and I find that the desktop version has somewhat soft/blurry text. This is especially noticeable when comparing it to the web based educational version. I took a screenshot comparing the desktop version (on the left) to the web editor (on the right). Is there any settings I can change on the desktop version to make the text as sharp as the web based editor?

I was going to say are you on latest because I thought this was fixed but I took a up close look and yup

The issue is still present on MacOS. On Windows you can set scaling to 200% and it's not blurry. But on MacOS it's always blurry :(

It was fixed recently for Picotron, so there may be a fix for PICO-8 in the future.
