Quality of rendered text is very bad #2

When I run the hello_world example the rendered text looks really bad (at least on my computer). Here is a screenshot:

I have very little familiarity with freetype so I don't really know how to fix this.

It's the same for me. I wrote this crate to get quick text rendering on the screen. Its code was copy-pasted from a C++ library that I wrote a few years ago that was also meant for quick-and-dirty text rendering.

There are many issues with this library, however to fix them I'd need to dive in freetype again, which I haven't done in years.
