The answer is simple. If you want everyone to read your posts, you will have to increase the size of the print. Even younger people have eye issues and can't handle the smaller priint. And us older ladies have constant problems with the small letters. So we skip over your posts - not to be mean, but just to avoid frustration. Is it really such a big deal to make your print a bit larger and be more "inclusive"?


 

I think a person who has vision issues would need everything on her computer to be larger so it makes more sense for that person to go into her settings and increase the size of EVERYTHING that is on her screen than every other person to increase what they post to accomodate her vision issues.

Isn't that just simple common sense?

I thought your common sense was just 'that', 'very simple to understand'. 

 

I tried over 50+ times rearraigning my font >back to where it was, then was told by an email from this format, we are working on it, along TO the scores of posters from Customer Care.

 

 I, long with many others, from the 16th of February... have set their personal computer settings what is comfortably readable. I tried your WANT TO BE small print; doesn't work for me, or over 100 other posters having the same straining. Those are the only ones I know, personally.

I have 'an' almost 20/20 vision level but will NOT read any fine print straining my eyes. I do not wear glasses or contacts.

 

   However, I will, though ( if I have to, *now). 

  ".... not been here on the 22nd, after my 6 pm..working again on (setting)fonts, then stopped all day until now, to read my waiting unread notification, I know know that each individual has different devices, different settings".

 

For those who do not like my #4, #5, or my choiced colored post print..too bad..```PASS over 'EM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Until this format is corrected I have no control, nor do you or you and especially you... that is always complaining. 

 

A simple common sense approach is easily thought through..

 

     but "IF" on constantly reading, posting...GOOD LUCK!

I always use #4. On my iPad it looks about the same as before.

Because you want to be a considerate person. But no one has to. Consider yourself excused.

Re: PRINT SIZE PREFERENCE

[ Edited ]

Another fan of size 3. Just seems to be a good, simple compromise. Not too small for PCs and laptops (ordinarily, obviously excluding the weirdness resulting for many during this site update) or too big on mobile devices. 

 

This size 4 is perfectly reasonable, too -  if it helps those currently having the squished tiny font issues, which are beyond their control, despite every effort made with their settings. 

 

Been there, done that (briefly) during the last “upgrade.” It was the many tech glitches and incompatibilities that sent me packing for over two years. No one should have to suffer eye strain or jump through incredible hoops to shop or post at any online retailer.
