Why is that? Do you also find it infuriating when magazines and books don't use your preferred font? Perhaps it annoys you when web pages don't use your favourite colour for every element too.
Web pages are designed and typography is part of the design.
- progval 6y agoI use an ebook reader and it lets me configure the font, size, spacing, and margins. I don't mind printed books and magazines because it's a constraint of the medium; but for websites it's a missed opportunity.
- swiley 6y agoBooks are often typeset by competent people (or at least people who are enough to have opinions on typesetting) while the web is usually the result of middle management and marketing seeing you as the dumb thing keeping some metric too low. Magazines are their own thing although typically this does apply to the actual articles themselves; Someone who knows what they're doing lays them out.
