[Bug 1999078] Hinting strangely broken in Epiphany
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1999078

(In reply to Nikolaus Waxweiler from comment #17)
Linear metrics are advance widths that are the same regardless of
pixel
size. Before, hinting or just rounding of advance widths would force you to
recompute metrics for text after every size (or zoom level) change. It's a
simplification you can do when you have subpixel positioning. Isn't it done
by Skia?
I have no clue. WebKit doesn't use Skia anyway. It uses harfbuzz, cairo,
FreeType, and Fontconfig.
