Changed the default font size and increase the line space a tiny bit.

 

Feedback welcome.

At first I thought my browser was zoomed in, tried to zoom out, then saw this post!

 

Looks good, less strain on the eyes.

Good move. I had Safari set to zoom this site to 115%, but now it looks good at 100%.

I will leave it at this font size for a couple of days.

I got told to calm it and have a Whisky as I am still in shock. Change is hard.

 

But I am getting older now and should get with the times.

Love it. Normally would be a slight zoom on mobile for me. No need to zoom at all now.

Could we try with a little less line spacing, but retain the new font size? Just seems to be a bit too much extra blank space around things.

The original line spacing was 1 and I've changed it to 1.3 - it all seemed very close together. Wait a day or two and see how it goes - we could drop to 1.2 to try then.

Much better, seems better on mobile too, which was pretty tiny.

Amazing how you immediately notice the change on opening. Definitely easier on the eyes.
