Hi @Nemachtilli ,

Source of font rendering issue is libfreetype6-2.8.1 which is default version for Ubuntu-18.04.
Upgrading or downgrading libfreetype6 will fix this issue.

You can download libfreetype6_2.8-0.2_amd64.deb from here for downgrading case:

Hi, it worked for me, You can download libfreetype6_2.8-0.2_amd64.deb.

I have a detail, I have to update or downgrade libfreetype6 every time I open brackets.

Every time I open brackets I have to have to update or downgrade libfreetype6, what form do I make it permanent?

It works but when updating the system I have to do this again

I noticed that this error goes away on Kubuntu 18.04 if I changed settings in:
(The default settings on Kubuntu needs to change).
_System Settings_ >> _Fonts_ >> _Use Antialiasing_ (Enabled)
Click _Configure_ >> _Sub-pixel rendering type_ & _Hinting Style_ should be set to None
Please see screenshots below.

I use Kubuntu 18.04:

In Ubuntu, I changed setting in Gnome Tweak > Fonts > Antialiasing : None

And after the restart, the result was wonderful: the issue has gone!

Good day,

The link must have changed as there is a new version out. This is an old
comment, apologies, I wish I could be of more assistance.

Kind Regards

Stefan
