Did you try the latest nightly build to see if the issue is better (or worse!) than your current version?

No, and I'll explain why below

Describe the bug

box drawing doesn't look that good and also some glyphs, too. like u+25e5 and some others that contain diagonal lines look weird.
wezterm: 31-08-24_18:04:37_a kitty: 31-08-24_18:04:50_a

wezterm line drawing (this might be intentional): 31-08-24_18:08:12_a kitty line drawing: 31-08-24_18:08:31_a

i am using jetbrains mono nerd font

To Reproduce

print triangle unicode characters (like u+25e5) and box drawing glyphs (again it look weird too because i switched from kitty)

Configuration

c.freetype_load_target = "HorizontalLcd" -- better anti-aliasing
c.custom_block_glyphs = true
c.anti_alias_custom_block_glyphs = true

i can't disable custom_block_glyphs, then it looks terrible and anti_aliasing doesn't do anything for triangle glyphs, freetype_load_target has to be HorizontallLcd for some characters too look good (that depends on monitor)

Expected Behavior

display triangle glyphs correctly like kitty does
