I see that, too. Notice the first "A" in "Animation" is anti-aliased in 
grayscale, yet the other letters use subpixel rendering and result in 
severe color fringes:

Also note that the letters seem too close together on macOS compared to 
Windows and Linux.

Unfortunately, I have only macOS 10.15 Catalina now, so I can't see how 
this renders on 10.13 High Sierra before Apple removed subpixel 
rendering for 10.14 Mojave.
