Ask HN: Do you think font-size is a tad too small on HNs desktop version?

Because I sure do!<p>Title text is only 10pt.<p>The title description&#x2F;subtext is only 7pt!

Yes, I have it zoomed in 3x to make it much easier to read. But it does handle zooming well and the browser remembers the setting, so it doesn&#x27;t cause any problems for me.

I fondly remember the 90s, when 8pt was a normal font size, and 12pt was considered &quot;big&quot;.<p>Folks have their system &#x2F; browser font settings default to way too small now, but that&#x27;s partially hardware folks&#x27; fault (people don&#x27;t know their display is hdpi unless it renders super tiny text).<p>Maybe a font size knob could go into &#x2F;profile alongside topcolor, but browser zoom works Really Well with HN on Desktop (150% - 300% works well for me).

Not really, but given how text-based HN is also scales nicely with browser zoom if you need it.
