No, it's not that bad. Users just don't

ugly. And in 2005 there's no excuse to have ugly pixellated fonts.
For example I use Gnome but qjackctl looks fine on my desktop, because
it's a good looking app even though the toolkit is different.
I think Audacity is using gtk+ (version 1), or whatever toolkit that
uses gtk+ underneath.
FWIW, fltk, also cross-platform, uses anti-aliased fonts where possible
and looks pretty nice on all of the platforms I've used it on.
