Very hard to read this website.

• hnlmorg 5y ago
  Why? I've spent a lot of time purposely to make it readable and, being dyslexic myself, I've found this final style sheet more readable than 99% of the other sites I visit. But if there are specific problems you're finding then I'd love to hear it

    I was curious so took a look. IMHO: - The body font is odd, I deactivated it in the dev tools and preferred the default. - There is a letter spacing of 0.08em, which makes things very wide. I first deactivated it, but then it felt cramped. So I modified it to .02 and it looked about right. - Text shadow on titles makes them look blurry. Looked a little better when I reduced the blur, but probably would look better to remove it.

      > The body font is odd, I deactivated it in the dev tools and preferred the default. Is it actually hard to read though or just a preference? I don't mind changing things if they're objectively worse. But if it's just personal preference then that's a different matter. The reason I say that is I do actually find that font easier to read than your typical sans-serif. Which is why I picked it. But maybe I'm not a good data point being dyslexic -- perhaps I'm just wired differently when it comes to what's readable? > There is a letter spacing of 0.08em, which makes things very wide.

Looked a little better when I reduced the blur, but probably would look better to remove it. There's text shadow all over the place. I'll remove all of it shortly and see if that makes a difference. Thank you

        Changes made. Is that any better?

          Yes, does look better, although looking on an iOS device, which may also have an effect. For example, the font.
