I think this may be specific to electron, I'm not seeing this same behavior in the demo inside chrome and Firefox.

Ah ha, this isn't just in electron. Repro steps:

Add

body {
    -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}

to your style sheet.

I guess this is just browser behavior, I can't reproduce in VS Code I guess because it doesn't have the CSS rule? I wouldn't expect font-smoothing to do anything after the fix for https://github.com/xtermjs/xterm.js/issues/2662 though
