One can use the Freetype library to render beautifully sharp text directly to a canvas with gamma-correct subpixel alpha coverage. Why this Rust website uses such blurry fonts, I don't know, it reminds me of playing an OpenGL/DirectX video game where the text is rendered using cached texture-filtered quads: maybe good enough for game UI, but not for intensive reading.
