My CRT would like to speak with you.
More seriously, it seems every phone screen invents it's own pixel layout and of course, can be rotated 90° at any time.

For this reason, to my knowledge no one has ever bothered designing pentile subpixel rendering or whatever. Like I'm sure there's a cute tech demo but no one has any reason to seriously design and ship such a thing.
Same situation with the vast majority of macs. Apple just disables subpixel at the OS level since most things are retina anyway.
It still has its practical applications when you have the kind of userbase Firefox or Chrome does, but yeah it's increasingly easy to just Not Bother.
