Forum Font and Appearance

Did the font change yesterday afternoon sometime? The font is lighter and more difficult for me to read. Or, is it on my end - Windows 10 laptop?

Everything is bleached out. Gray on white is a lot like oatmeal. A common derisive term is mush. @moderators

Try out the dark mode to see if it makes it easier for you to read.

I like the font, I just wish it was a little darker or bolder.

It’s that “Montserrat font”, its too thin for old eyes.
Looks fine on a giant monitor, hair thin on this laptop, can’t imaging a cell phone.

Agree its a little harder to read.
Not a deal breaker tho.

One more vote to go back to the old font.

We’ll pass the the feedback on to the office.

Dark mode is unpleasant and disconcerting. The font it self is OK it is the lack of contrast between it and the white background that makes it harder to read. For now I increased the font’s size from normal to larger.

They are taking a look into darkening the text.

The type is ok but the greyish appearance it very difficult to see and I find gives me a headache from eye strain if I spend any significant amount of time on the forum.
A little more contrast would be wonderful!!
:eyes: where did everything go? :eyes: :eyeglasses: :mag_right: :eyeglasses: :heart::grin:

They were unable to darken the font so they changed it back to arial.
