There's not many knobs available. Hinting is not enabled - and that's
commonly the case on modern plartforms.
LCD is your best option for readibility of static text, which is why it
is the default for UI Controls,
It should reduce the pixel grid fitting uneveness you highlight but
doesn't eliminate it.
Note : this presumes that the freetype on your system enables LCD .. if
it doesn't there's nothing FX can do about that.

Hello,
Sorry for asking here, but I seem to have tried everything I could
find on SO/Reddit/JBS etc. Could someone please share what font
settings I should be using to get decent font hinting on Linux? Please
see the screenshot.

I'm not very picky, but the font I see is just not suitable for
presenting app to customers. I've tried enabling and disabling hinting
and autohinting, using different hinting styles, changing the font
smoothing type and prism.lcdtext etc. Unfortunately no matter what I
do, the font hinting is always bad.
Fedora, KDE, all latest versions.
