Hyper: Can't make font any lighter on v2.0

[igoticecream]

• [x] I am on the latest Hyper.app version
• [x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

• OS version and name: OS X High Sierra
• Hyper.app version: 2
• Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: Config
• Relevant information from devtools _(CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere)_:
• The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:

Issue

The issue doesn't happen on v1.x

Normal font weight (possible on hyper 1.4.6):

"Normal" font weight on 2.0

I have tried fontWeight: 'normal', fontWeightBold: 'normal', and fontWeight: '100', but none worked so far

Have you tried reloading fully (CMD+R) after changing this? I think we need to tell xterm to re-render the charAtlas after this setting is changed.

Is "LCD font smoothing" enabled in System Preferences > General? If so, that may be your problem. Disabling the option makes the OS look better, and also applies in applications, so try disabling that.

Check out this issue, it's defaulting the opacity to 0.6 in my terminals too and making it much darker than it should be: https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/2827

@iamthemovie He means the font weight, not color.
