Two more comparisons to throw in the ring:
 * DejaVu, FreeType with subpixel anti aliasing enabled (and
app_server SPAA enabled as well): http://i.imgur.com/xGdSxMb.png
 * Noto, same FreeType and app_server setup. http://i.imgur.com/LHnpN2B.png

I like DejaVu even more with that setup -- bluriness is gone, even
better than Noto now.
There "may" still be patent issues, but Ubuntu as well as most other
Linux distros enable SPAA, so, we might as well too I suppose...

Thoughts?
