Bold, Pixelated Text & Images in Firefox 70.0.1
I'm looking to switch from Chrome to Firefox for a myriad of reasons. I've been able to find feature and extension parity for just about everything. However, there is one issue that is holding me up and is a major deal-breaker. Compared to Chrome, text looks darker and less sharp, and certain images are pixelated. Attached is a screenshot from Facebook on Chrome and Firefox. Default text size/settings on both browsers, at 100% zoom. Chrome text and images looks clear and crisp on the left, Firefox text and images looks darker and more pixelated on the right.
System information below:
OS: macOS Catalina 10.15 (latest public release) Specs: MacBook Pro 13-inch, 2016, 3.3GHz Dual-Core i7, 16GB RAM, Intel Iris 550 1536MB Display: 13.3 inch 2560x1600 retina display Firefox: 70.01.1 (latest stable); ALL ADDONS/EXTENSIONS DISABLED Chrome: 78.0.3904.87 (latest stable)
I have tried all suggested solutions in the following links, including changing font smoothing via System Preferences, modifying font smoothing via terminal (defaults write -g CGFontRenderingFontSmoothingDisabled -bool NO/YES), and anything else suggested via the below links. NOTHING works. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/avirnu/weird_blurrybold_text_after_updating_to_firefox/ https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/aj3p2v/fonts_too_bold_since_firefox_devedition_660b1/ https://superuser.com/questions/563793/how-do-i-disable-font-anti-aliasing-in-firefox-while-keeping-font-hinting-on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1495282
Anyone have any clue how to fix this? I really do want to switch to Firefox, but I refuse to do so with this terrible rendering that i'm currently getting.

The text is way too bold. Furthermore, the images on the right are undoubtedly more pixelated than the ones on the left.

Not to be rude, but did you read my post? I specifically noted that I’ve tried every idea posted in just about all of those links.
