Description

Hia,

I've been experimenting with setting up this plugin on windows, and I've noticed that the font rendering seems to be messed up when enabling this plugin. The clearest example that you can see is comparing the text in the console to the text in the windows non client area image

See Zoomed in comparison: image

I'm using a default config file, with the only addition being "hyper-pokemon" to the plugins. Hyper version 3.2.1 hyper-config.txt

However, when you set webGLRenderer: false inside the hyper config, the font issues disappear.

Here's the output of the "hyper -v" for both situations they are identical HyperWebGLFalse.txt HyperWebGLTrue.txt

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how hyper pokemon themes interact with the WebGL renderer's font handling. Check if the plugin's CSS overrides font smoothing or text rendering properties. Compare default Hyper rendering with WebGL enabled vs disabled.
