AIBU to not like this new 'look'

[Nanny0gg]

Or am I alone?

Hard to read for me, and quite a strain on the eyes.

This font is incredably ugly and difficult to read. Hate it.

I am usually fine with new fonts etc but the height of the letters makes each line blur into the one above and below. I much prefer Univers55 fwiw. what a handsome font that is.

My eyes don't like it, I have to keep taking a break from the page.

I'm struggling to read it .

The words look "squashed".

It's 'spidery' and difficult to read.

It is hard to read. What's the point of it?

I don't think it's as clear and easy to read as it was before.

I suppose it's like getting a tattoo of Ben Fogle on your face. You'll get used to it in a couple of years, in the meantime it's a talking point.

I think it's fab. Very fresh and modern.

You'll get used to it! Just when you do, they'll change it again. I don't really like change very much.

Anyone else opened this thread thinking it would be about a crazy fashion trend?

It's 'spidery' and difficult to read.

To me it's the very opposite of spidery.

Classic case of not pleasing all of the people all of the time.

Love it. Much clearer and cleaner.

I don't like it. Why change? Who asked for change? Was it YOU??

I don't like it.

Oh I thought my iPad was dodgy. I don't care for it which is why I used desktop on the iPad. The writing is too pale and thin.

Thumbs down.

And yes, as i'm typing this i can see the text is so thin and spidery. With such massive ziggy red underlines if you misspell you can hardly see the word!

Whyyyyyyyyy does everything have to be changed all the bleddy time?

I still harrumph when I read 'trending' instead of most active.

I like it. It's cleaner and sharper on my screen. Have only tried it on iPad and laptop though, not sure I'll be so keen on my phone (although TBF I find the phone app so maddening I rarely use it).

In my phone and it's giving me a headache

YANBU

It is bloody terrible

It's a much harder font to read. IMO.

It's the same typeface as Facebook, I think. But we have Light rather than Book weight. I also think that the contrast needs adjusting. If you look at your own posts, the different colour background makes it easier to read. If MNHQ change the weight of the typeface and the colour saturation of the background it should be alright!

"I also think that the contrast needs adjusting. If you look at your own posts, the different colour background makes it easier to read."

Yes, exactly this.

Interesting blanche, yes, my own posts are set to pale pink and it is a little easier on the eye than on the white.

............. oh these fecking red zig zags!

It's all a bit too pastel now
