I&#39;m working on a text heavy website and someone has advised me to go with antialiased font-smoothing mentioning that browsers add a solid color to the pixels in font glyphs while rendering which makes it look different(thicker) than how the designer intends it to be.
CSS <code>font-smoothing</code> property fixes this with implementation in webkit and mozilla with a considerably good support in major browsers (<a target='_blank' href="http://caniuse.com/#search=font-smoothing">http://caniuse.com/#search=font-smoothing</a>)
Is it a good idea to use CSS font-smoothing or should I just go with the default browser implementation?
