1) I'll tell you a secret - in the application, the scale is set to 200% (as opposed to the pre-retina), because at this scale the image looks like it will look on the website (the actual size if you attach the ruler to the screen). And it is at a scale of 200% that your application for some reason begins to render the text clearer/sharper (unlike Photoshop) than it actually is and will be in final png image
2) For some reason, you ignore the problem indicated in paragraph 2.
I have all the standard settings, both in Affinity and in Photoshop.
All your answers sound like I'm an idiot. And this is support for a paid product. Thank you, I made the appropriate conclusions.

I'm upset that you don't see this as a problem.
Thank you for providing trial access and I didn't have to buy your product.

1) Below are 4 screenshots of Photoshop and Affinity Photo comparison - Arial 10px.
At a scale >= 201, the text in both applications looks about the same, but at a scale <= 200 the Affinity Photo starts to display the text much clearer (more like a vector).




2) Take a look at the video below - after every square move text loses its sharpness for fraction of second.

Hi!
I have two problems:
1) Text (not rasterized) at a scale of 0-200% looks like a vector (absolutely crisp), but if I change the scale to 201%, the text starts to look like a raster (how it will look when exported to .png).
2) When scaling in the range of 0-200%, the text (and other not rasterized objects) momentarily loses its quality (the feeling as if the display changes from vector to raster and vice versa). Changing performance preferences doesn't help.

This forum is the only place to report a problem with a paid product - https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/contact/
I don't care if you get paid or not. I want to pay for a product and report a bug in it, but instead I'm being held for an idiot by 2-3-4 line of support or plain users.
