OT: Is my eyesight going away, or is the font unreadably light-coloured?

  No, the font weight and color are horrible.

    My company only just noticed our font renders terribly for one of our newer web apps - all the developers had Macs and didn't notice an egregious difference when rendered on lower quality displays. We changed it immediately. I feel empathy for this particular development oversight among small teams.

    Yeah, a content font shouldn't be at 300. It's way too thin at that font size.

  The color is #555, so it's not terrible. I think the font-weight of 300 is the bigger culprit here. If you pop open the Chrome dev tools and change font-weight to normal, everything becomes much easier to read.

  Not terrible. Just mostly terrible. For Chrome there is a "High Contrast" add-in to normalize shiat font color selection.

  Also OT: Anyone else think the Dyn logo is reminiscent of the old Symantec logo? I actually had to go look to see if there was a relationship there (also discovering that the logo was considerably different than I remembered).
