They're so ugly. I can't stand it. I come back on here and all the fonts are different like they are all squiggly. Anyone else having the same problem?

Lol, I kept googling for ways to reset the global font in chrome and to then find out the global font wasn't changed at all which was kind of a hard task to do since chrome is installed in my primary language.

Can we add some feature where we can select our own fonts?

If it stays like this, I may just leave this forum until it goes back to normal.

Terrible idea. Keep the original font, please. Leave the weekly layout changing for YouTube.

I noticed this earlier, but it disappeared shortly.

I wonder if it actually is more readable for dyslexic people. If it is, having it as an option seems like a great idea.
