That font is very difficult to read with OS X's font rendering[1]. I think it's too thin, causing strange antialiasing effects. [1]: http://i.imgur.com/BkyPv.

- shpoonj 14y agoCame here to say this. Github owes a lot of their success to their amazing designers.
- sytse 14y agoThank you for informing me. I changed to font to Helvetica. I hope it's better now. (maybe need a hard refresh)
- danjones 14y agoYou may want to switch that to Helvetica Neue (or just add it to the top of the font stack), the subtle difference in this case is that it has a wider support for different font weights whereas Helvetica jumps from 100 to 400 to 600.
- sytse 14y agoGreat suggestion, I just added Helvetica Neue. Let me know if you have any other suggestions.
