Please Make it Readable

I don't know what size the default font is on this platform, but I do know I can not read it. I have been asking for a size 14 (that's what this one is) as a minimum size so that everyone can easily read posts without having to enlarge the copy manually. From now on if I open a post and I can't easily read it, I won't. I don't think that the public is any different. Make it readable or lose the readers.

My eyes are in the same range Barbara. But no prospect will squint to read a post either. TY        Sheila

Maybe one of these days someone in the hierarchy will listen or maybe spend money on improvements. I agree about the size.

Size 14 is my preferred font as well, Sheila. It seems the older I get, the bigger I like it.

It isn't hard to change that when you post....I often use 18 point type.

Morning again Sheila.

I use 18 point size font.  It sure makes it easier to read.

I use 14 as well, and for the same reasons. I want it to be easy to read.

Hello Sheila - size 14 is a good font size.  More readable is a helpful feature.

I use the standard 14 font - I want others to be able to come to my site and
easily read.  But, Sheila, a couple of times in rechecking my post after publishing, I noted that the copy was all in the unreadable small font and I had to go in and edit it.

Hi Jane. that does happen on occasion. If 14 were the default it wouldn't. TY    Sheila

Hi Sheila- I agree that 14 is a good for fonts.  I went to that years ago and am so happy I did. I don't want to have to squint to read something.
