What font do you use to read hackernews? Because in Verdana those are exactly the same. Tried some other fonts in inspector but think your thin spaces could be even thinner :)
- dpwm 9y agoNot the commenter you're replying to, but on my system I see a difference between the two examples they post. This is because hackernews has font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif and I have neither of the named fonts installed. On my system, hackernews is rendered using Dejavu Sans. This is presumably a default for Firefox on linux which I never realised until today.
