On macOS font rendering is not as sharp as it could be.
Describe the solution you'd like
Replace current Merriweathersans font family with Inter and set -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; and -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale; for smoother font rendering on macOS.
Describe alternatives you've considered
As Inter is pretty close to Arial and San Francisco font in macOS I've also thought of setting system-ui as the default font-family of the application.
There are both positive and negative things about using system-ui.
Positive: The main advantage to this could be a slight performance improvement and FOUT avoidance (no need of font-display), also this means a reduced dependency in terms of assets (by removing the custom typeface) and implicitly a reduced overall weight of the project.
Negative(and the reason I ended up proposing Inter): The default font will be different from one platform to another (macOS and iOS: San Francisco, Android and ChromeOS: Roboto, Windows: Segoe UI) so there will be a lot of inconsitencies cross platform.
The advantage of using Inter is that it also comes as a variable font (variable fonts support) so there can be only one file for all font weights and styles.
