Fonts gone weird on mobile site

In the last few minutes, the first post on a thread (which I have highlighted) has a strange font. It makes my eyes go funny. Same thing has happened to the buttons up there at the top (Log Out; Inbox; Desktop Site). Anyone else?

I'm on a iPhone 5 using safari.

Font ok, but has a white 3d effect or shadow.

This means that if it is on any bacground colour other than white it is very nauseating on the eye.

Perfectlypurple · 29/11/2013 17:53

Glad it's not just me. The font on the ops posts on all threads has gone funny.

MrsS1980 · 29/11/2013 17:55

My font is ok but random posts have a grey background.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 29/11/2013 17:56

I think it is all posts but just more obvious on highlighted ones. Like a dodgy 3d effect white shadow to bottom left. Buttons at top (secrion /talk etc look blurry) glad it's not just me!

SouthernComforts · 29/11/2013 17:56

Me too, on android!

Crikeyblimey · 29/11/2013 17:58

Yep - me too. Tiny writing that my old eyes can't read.

SthingMustBeScaringThemAway · 29/11/2013 17:59

Yes. IPhone 4S. On mobile site not app.

The print is all fuzzy.

Suddenly TIO is refusing to scroll to the saved post and won't let me scroll through manually except with intense effort.

Sad

Bookmarks not working either.

CrackerSnacker · 29/11/2013 18:11

Fuzzy here too and threads won't go down to bookmarked bit or sometimes scroll down at all. On a Nexus 7.

WipsGlitter · 29/11/2013 18:15

Font in OP and the footer bar.

iPad

Safari

No mnetting for me - squiffy eyes!

usualsuspect · 29/11/2013 18:15

I hope it gets sorted soon,I'll never be able to read it after a few drinks.

bigkidsdidit · 29/11/2013 18:17

Mine too, and random posts are highlighte grey.

usualsuspect · 29/11/2013 18:18

The reply button doesn't scroll you to the bottom either.

AryaofhouseSnark · 29/11/2013 18:19

Ah, glad it's not me.

Bloody Hell, I had to get off the sofa to get my iPad [hard done by]

AryaofhouseSnark · 29/11/2013 18:19

Which is ok btw, but I don't use the app so maybe that's why.

ginmakesitallok · 29/11/2013 18:21

Me too , bloody annoying and impossible to read any strikethroughs

WipsGlitter · 29/11/2013 18:23

I'm on an iPad not using the app and it's still weird!

Tee2072 · 29/11/2013 18:25

It also won't change to the desktop site on my Kindle.

ophiotaurus · 29/11/2013 18:27

Ah just saw email address have sent pic.

ConcreteElephant · 29/11/2013 18:30

Mine keeps leaping to the top of the page and I've got the funny font thing too. Also, it doesn't seem to be sized correctly width-wise? It's roaming about as I scroll up and down.

Oh, iPhone something? With Safari...

Pascha · 29/11/2013 18:31

Looks the same on the mobile site on a laptop using Chrome, and half the buttons don't work. It hurts my eyes so I'm switching back to desktop site now.

ConcreteElephant · 29/11/2013 18:32

button not working either - am I going to have to scroll? Harumph.

This is a sign I need to bathe the DC and put them to bed isn't it...
