Describe the bug

Fonts in the app look clear only on built-in Retina display of the MacBook Pro. At the same time, on the external Dell P2416D display they are not clear enough. Please pay attention to non-Retina displays look and feel.

To Reproduce

Open the app on non-Retina display and just look at it.

Expected behaviour

Crisp fonts throughout the app.
