I raised a similar thing with a new MacBook Pro a few months ago - currently 
Pharo is blurry and I also find it quite jolting moving from apps like Chrome 
or IntelliJ to a slightly fuzzier Pharo.

Unfortunately - this isn’t an easy fix as it seems like the solution is tied to 
Bloc. I believe progress is moving forward with Bloc, but I’m keen to hear at 
Pharo days if there is some way to move higher res screen implications forward 
as well.

I know many current Pharo developers either have lower res screens, or have 
just got used to it (I’m not finding I’m getting used to it) - but more 
importantly it makes it very difficult for me to show new developers how cool 
Pharo is as they all comment that it looks funny compare to their other tools.

Of course, its open source, and we can all chip in - unfortunately this one 
seems like it needs quite specialised knowledge - but I think the desire is 
there.
