- Someone1234 3y agoHN uses a font size of 14px, that's only slightly smaller than most browser's baseline of 16px (Vs. 12px for small). By any chance are you reading it on a 4K display? In my opinion, HN and most websites, shouldn't be setting a baseline font size at all (least of all in pixels). Medium/default should be the baseline then large/larger etc should be used as-needed.
- siriusfeynman 3y agoit's smaller than most other websites and for me on a 1080p display top level comments don't wrap until ~200 characters at the default zoom level which makes it even worse edit: also for me the font size is set to 12, not 14
- Solvency 3y ago- Too small on a 13" MacBook Pro (2019) - Too small on a 15" MBP (2019) - Too small on a 32" 4K BenQ desktop monitor on Windows. Verdict: too small.
