Did something change with the font sizes?

Since I can remember, the fonts inside a thread were bigger and for a couple days last week the sidebar with the different boards was much bigger. Sometimes the font would be small for a second when opening a thread, but then double in size. It's damn near unreadable since logging out and logging back in yesterday.

I'm on an iPhone on the regular site, not mobile. 'Preciate the feedback.

It hasn't been that noticeable when on my laptop, but on mobile, the smaller font has made things difficult. I know there's a mobile version, but I prefer the full since I'm used to navigating and I often use people's avi to associate their posts.

I'm having sane issues. Can barely see the post.

I would say the font was 2-3 time bigger. Seemed to happen right around the time the Account button was added. Thanks!

Isn't that the true scale of the font when condensed to small screen?

Better on mobile or PC? I've said already I like the PC changes. But that seems to have made mobile less user friendly; at least for the full site.

We are looking into it. It hasn't been clear what the issues are since people use different versions of the site on different devices.

Chicken, when viewing td on full version on iPhone, the font of the post in threads are barely readable. The font size has been greatly reduced right around the same time you guys were making the site modifications.

Like the other poster said, some prefer the full version rather than the mobile version when viewing on smart phones because we like the functionality the full version has.

The font sizes seem to be back to normal viewing full version on iPhone.
