Seems like mathjax doesn't have anti-aliasing on wikimedia sites (or doesn't have support at all?) This leads to not-very-pretty rendering on some mathematical symbols. See the Integral on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math/MathJax_testing#Summation for example.
Isn't the font just too small ? Most operating systems stop using anti aliasing when fonts are below a certain size.
It's anti-aliased for me in Chrome and Firefox on Mac OS X 10.8... can you add browser details and a screenshot?

I see subpixel antialiasing on everything in that screenshot. What seems to be the problem?
Now I see why. If you zoom in or out from 100% it looks antialiased. see detailed screenshot
Created attachment 10909 [details] the same screenshot with 400% zoom
@matanya are you 100% sure you actually have MathJax enabled in your preferences ? cause that looks like the PNG mode.
I'm stupid. I was logged-out from my account.
