BUG: All Text is jagged

[RealSweetPanda]

Checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

• I am using the latest version of Flow Launcher.

Problem Description

All text is jagged and pixely, there's no anti-aliasing, and ClearType is enabled, my resolution and dpi are very standard, and it doesn't change no matter what display I use (I have 3).

you will maybe need to open images in new tab to see it in a full screen size to actually see the it

To Reproduce

1. use the software

Now noticed, this is only to results, text in settings, and input. text like the clock for example are smooth

@onesounds Can you reproduce this issue? Is it resolution related?

[onesounds]

@VictoriousRaptor I can't reproduce it. This issue is usually affected by the textrendering mode setting in WPF. We had a similar problem in the past and I removed text rendering code it altogether. This could be due to the theme's translucency effects, user's DPI, CLEARTYPE settings, monitors with different resolutions, resolution changes, etc.

1. Try changing your theme to default. (win11system)
2. Try changing the high dpi setting in program properties (one of the 3 should work, not sure which)
   When testing after changing settings, always exit the program and relaunch.

It didn't work, I set flow launcher to the default theme and I tried all 3 options, making sure to close flow launcher via the tray, setting for all users and not for all users, both on the exe in the root folder of the software and in app-1.18.0, I tried setting disable fullscreen optimizations, and tried run in 640 x 480 screen resolution. I also tried with all of those options setting each of my monitors to the main display (because windows decides dpi and scaling via the main display) and disconnecting one of them because I know it specifically sometimes brought weird visual issues but it didn't work. I also tried running flow launcher as admin but also didn't do anything.
my setup is slightly unusual so I will list it here in case it will help you:
HDMI display, 1366x768 resolution, 50Hz (set to 60Hz in windows because of not displaying anything otherwise), 32'' 698x392 mm (49 dpi)
HDMI port in computer, dvi in display (using adapter), 1920x1080 resolution, 60Hz, 23'' 509x286 mm (96 dpi) (normally the main display)
DisplayPort display, 1920x1080 resolution, 50Hz, 11.6'' 256x144 mm (190 dpi)
(dpi calculated through this https://www.sven.de/dpi/)

if you need any other info, I will give it to you gladly.

I have some work to do first, so I'll look into it when I'm done.
I'll share a test build when it's available.
