And here a comparison with the default configs (neovide left, neovim-qt right)
The effect is not as large anymore here, probably because of the paler colors.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
OS: Arch Linux 6.0.7-arch1-1 x86_64
Neovide Version: 0.10.3
Neovim Version: 0.8.0
Please run neovide --log and paste the contents of the .log file created in the current directory here: neovide_rCURRENT.log
Additional context
Using the #e-X and #h-X does not affect the problem.
This is under wayland / qtile
While neovim-qt can render FiraCode properly (as seen in the screenshot), when choosing Fantastique it also renders too bold and reports: Warning: Font "Fantastique Sans Mono" reports bad fixed pitch metrics.

I have the same problem and more:
Font is bolder than it should. It also stretches horizontally for some reason. Compared with terminal neovim.
terminal uses size of 12, but I have to put 11.3 to get close on neovide. The other options don't do much. (I have been through all of them. Done so in the past too)
But looking at the original screenshot I would say that Neovim-qt renders the text on dark background slightly too thin, and neovide slightly too thick, while the situation is reversed with the light theme. Neovim-qt also uses subpixel anti-aliasing which will support thinner font depending on how you have it configured. That's not enabled by default in Neovide, since people reported that some colors get rendered too bright.
In any case, there's no right or wrong, unless you have a very high dpi screen that can render each pixel and doesn't have to compromise. But if you look it from a color perspective then Noevide does it correctly, since the font looks white as it should instead of gray.
Describe the bug
Text is rendered far too bold when
&background
is"dark"
.To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
neovide -- -u NONE
:set guifont=Fantasque\ Sans\ Mono:h10
and:set guifont=FiraCode\ Nerd\ Font\ Mono:h10
(arch linx, otf-fantasque-sans-mono 1.8.0-2 and aur/nerd-fonts-complete 2.2.2-1)let &background="light"
Expected behavior
The font rendering in light and dark mode should yield similar boldness
