Just go to Edit \ Preferences, and choose the Appearance tab.

You should see a “Font Smoothing” dropdown menu, which you can change to “Light” to make the font smoothing less “fuzzy”. Here’s some example screenshots for your enjoyment:

 

Font smoothing: Medium (more fuzzy)

Font smoothing: Light (less fuzzy)

Font smoothing: Strong (absurdly fuzzy)

Take your pick! I personally chose Light as my default, and it seems to make a big difference.
