That was a massive change, I even miss the Gill Sans change and straight into whitney.
Readability has dropped significantly for me as I always prefer larger text and wider columns to fill the screen on desktop. It forces me to scroll down way too much now especially on active stories. Not too keen on the threaded comment too. Feels a little claustrophobic with the narrower column.
What's interesting for me is the font choice is not great when I was reading it on my desktop machine, but when I fire up DN on my phone, it was such a delight! I really enjoyed it on my phone. Looks sexy on mobile.
I think this could be down to reading distance, typography, and whitespace balance. Everything else, is as sweet as ever.
Thanks guys for making the effort, and able to take it to the chin with some of the comments and turn in around quickly. Still think you guys did an amazing job creating a space for designers. Double THUMBS UP!
