Like it! I'm finding it much easier to read now, especially the home page.

@nzkiwiman sorry - added one line to my reply.

 

 

Ah yes the 15px was just too big.

 

14px is ok; I just still prefer 13px (espy when on a desktop system)

 

 

 

I did check my mobile last night (Pixel 3a, Android 11, Chrome 92) and couldn't tell any difference

Yes but unrelated to this topic. Just report the post and one of the mods will fix it.

Using Firefox and with some add-ons for dark mode and I don't know what else, this is quite difficult to read -

 

 

- yes the answer might well be get rid of the add-ons but wondering if it could also be made bigger or use bold or something...

I have not changed the font size or colour for those lines so I'd say it's the add-on.

I'm browsing Geekzone on 90% zoom on Firefox and it's all perfectly readable with the default mode. That appears to be at 100%, and it's unreadable even then.

I have Firefox on 125% zoom and its still difficult to read. Its fine in light mode (using the add-on). Just seems to be one of the smaller fonts thats being used (for no reason that I can see, at least on a normal monitor) -

 

 

so I was hinting a bit that maybe it could be at least the same size as the rest of the page or more like the very top line, or something. Though I guess I'm the only one - yes I am special (or so people tell me...)

@rb99 Why would you ever think it is the responsibility of the site owner to fix this for you? You're using a third party addon to amend site colours beyond what site owners intended. If anyone asked that on any sites I designed then I'll be telling them to bugger off...

 

If you want to fix it yourself then perhaps use an addon like Stylus but all of this is well beyond the responsibility of a site owner to even care about. I'd imagine others will agree that you're on your own here and while you're running such addons that may break other site elements.
