Yes it looks better, but I also think what's making it difficult to read is the color purple you're using. Check out the ticket exchange vs the help board. Help board has darker font and is easier to read. You should overhaul the site to have the new LSU purple, which is darker and would be easier to read.

I know it won't ever happen, but it's just my $0.02.

I'm only talking about the desktop version. Not mobile. Mobile is so easy to read. Maybe I'm just used to mobile so when I just went on desktop for the first time in a long time that purple color jumped out at me

I can't speak for everyone, only me, but the issues doesn't seem to be with the font or font size. The major benefit to the underlines was it created separation; there was a clear, distinct delineation between threads. Now it's more jumbled to where it's almost like reading down the first line of a sentence going down a paragraph. Yes, I'm aware there are 2 different background shades and there are individual boxes that each thread title is in. I'm just saying that with the underlined titles, it made each thread stand out on its own better than it does now. That's all.

the underlines did not create separation...the grid lines create the separation.

I promise you will get use to the no underlines and then when you look back, you will wonder why you liked the underlines in the first place...

I like the no underlines thing. It makes it look cleaner for sure. But that purple tho.

I'm saying this new purple would be better for font. Or shoot, just make it black.

Yeah I mean I get that change is hard, and we just aren't used to it. I'm sure eventually I'll acclimate.

But I do still stand by my point that you disagree with. I already said I'm fully aware there are grid lines and 2 different backgrounds that physically separate the threads. I'm just saying as a user, the underlines help distinguish threads much better than no lines.

Maybe I'm the oddball, I just think the latter makes it easier for your eyes to more quickly find a topic.

Actually, now that I'm doing a side by side comparison...the smaller font on OT looks better than the larger font on the HB.

No. Looks worse than standard no underline.

It looks better, but removing the underlines was an unnecessarily shitty change. My TD stock is plummeting and killing my portfolio. Thanks a lot.
