Font weight
Answered
I use IDEA and Android Studio on a daily basis and both editors on both IDEs use the same font settings, Menlo, 12pt. However, Android Studio renders lighter fonts and I find them easier on my eyes (see below). Note that the whole UI is affected and both IDEs seem to use the same font, not just the editors.
Is it possible to configure IDEA to look like Android Studio?

Font appearance on Mac depends on Java version used, see https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/206544879 .

Changing Appearance & Behaviour > Appearance > Antialiasing from Subpixel to Greyscale makes the font look thinner, as I wanted.
Thank you!
Greyscale aliasing in IDEA is what I was looking for, thanks guys
Same here, Greyscale got it, I can see again!
This worked for me too
