Is anyone else getting a low-res, pixelated /choppy text background for file/folder names in Fan View?

It caught my eye and looks terrible. Was not expecting this, especially from Apple. I cannot unsee it anymore. :|

I'm runnng Yosemite on the non-retina 2011 MacBook Pro at 1440 x 900 resolution. Not sure how it looks on Retina models.

I don't know why is everyone ignoring this. It is awful :(
It is ever worse with Dark Mode - ON.

Oh GOD??

Why would they use bitmaps in these days and age? What ever happened to using vector graphics in a OS?

I have been fairly okay with everything apple is doing but to step back and use a bitmap I am just blown away.

In many different places I have seen black corners on areas that should be transparent.

Now I know :(
