- ugh 15y agoThe fundamentals are solid (the line height is perfectly alright, about one hundred characters per line are within the range of empirical results on optimal readability). I suspect the font is so small because the design is so old. As far as I know it hasn’t been updated in ages. It’s old but by no means bad design.
