Big things to expect from Emacs 25

I'm not a ST3 user, so I'm curious in which way it renders fonts differently than other applications (and on which platforms)?

Emacs and Chromium are the applications that I spend most of my time at the computer in, and both of those go through the same font-rendering system (Infinality patched freetype) and look very nice. I also use standalone Emacs frames and almost never run it from a terminal.

Edit: I installed Sublime and took a comparison screenshot with the same font, however slightly different font weight and theme: http://i.imgur.com/UqwM0j2.png

What font is that in the emacs screenshot?

As abrowne correctly identified, the font (in both applications actually) is Source Code Pro. I've been using that font since it was released and am very happy with it, same goes for the colour scheme: Gruber Dark
