Or am I alone?

I like it.

GladysKravitz · 16/03/2016 12:11

I can't read the text as easily. And I don't like change in general! Angry

Nanny0gg · 16/03/2016 12:13

There is a whole thread in Site Stuff with Justine's explanation.

No response as yet to those who are finding it difficult to read.

The new font is very clear and uncluttered, but then I do like change.

Please can everyone who say they like the change, go stand in the corner, face the wall, and think about what they've just said until they come around to my way of thinking.

OP, YADNBU. It looks awful.

headings on the active convos page need to be in darker text it all sort of blurs into one nothing stands out.

backs away

In another couple of days it will all seem normal. Give it time.

Nanny0gg · 16/03/2016 12:18

Maybe I need more coffee - or an eye test!

No. It needs to be a serif font. Newspapers and books use serif fonts for a very good reason!!

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 16/03/2016 12:19

I am not sure it will seem normal to me, fireside - I am really struggling to read it at all. What on earth was wrong with the old font?

LaraCroftInDisguise · 16/03/2016 12:19

Oh thank goodness. I went away for a little while and came back to find my Mumsnet all wrong! I thought I'd broken it!

ItsInTheDogsMouth · 16/03/2016 12:20

It's much harder to read with this font.

Letustryagain · 16/03/2016 12:21

YABU, I really like it. Makes it much easier to read.

Halo
firesidechat · 16/03/2016 12:22

It doesn't seem harder to read. Perhaps there's something wrong with me.

OrchardDweller · 16/03/2016 12:22

Finding it much harder to read as well ...

Notagainmun · 16/03/2016 12:23

No one like change to begin with. I am sure we will soon get used to it and even prefer it.

diddl · 16/03/2016 12:25

I find the posts on threads easier to read.

But not so keen on the TIA or how it looks whilst writing a message.

SenecaFalls · 16/03/2016 12:27

It's definitely harder to read for me.

bigTillyMint · 16/03/2016 12:28

OMG, I thought it was just me with the weird font-change thing.

I don't like it but I am old and like things to stay the same Grin

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 16/03/2016 12:28

YANBU.

But YABU about it being a serif font, it was already a sans serif before, just one that was easier to read and wasn't so fucking big in the message box, which is STILL annoying the shit out of me every time I type a new message!!

AlisonWunderland · 16/03/2016 12:28

there seems to be a lot of white space

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 16/03/2016 12:31

Need to try to post to see what it looks like. Hmm I like serif-y fonts! They look all grown up and antique.
