Hi, @ace. I just noticed that the fonts on TidBITS Talk seem to have recently gotten larger (as of a few days ago).
I had previously configured my account for the largest size, in order to produce a comfortable size on my system (Firefox, with a 97 dpi screen), but as of a few days ago, everything started looking too big.
I went back to my preferences and reset my font size back to the middle (Normal) size, and everything once again looks the way I expect.
But strangely enough, if I go back to that preference page, it still says “Largest” as the current selection on the menu. So something weird is still going on. Maybe a recent Discourse bug?
OK. The failure to save was my fault - I missed the “Save Changes” button.
But nevertheless, it was configured for Largest and was displaying something larger than that until I twiddled that menu (and apparently didn’t save the changes), but that was enough to make everything look right again.
Discourse bug? Firefox bug? Something else? I have no idea, but maybe someone else has experienced the same thing.
Huh! I haven’t changed anything with Discourse settings, but I did update to the latest version a few days ago, so it’s possible they changed something under the hood.
