New q2a interface for this forum: Please change the font family from Ubuntu to Arial (or sans-serif)

Question

I have just seen that you changed the old template with the new one (snow flat).

But it is really hard to read.

Compare yourself:

Ubuntu font:

 

Arial Font:

 

I hope you can do this soon :)

Answer 1

I have to agree, Ubuntu looks good, but not very practical for reading texts.

Answer 2

I believe the Ubuntu font was designed to be MORE readable than Arial and similar fonts.

Here's a few links that seem to agree:

Personally I find it more readable. Perhaps give it a few weeks and see if you get used to it.

I agree with the reason

I agree with this

Answer 3

Since Q2A is 99% about text content, it is always good to use font-family which has better to readability. Ubuntu is one of those and available for free. This is why I used Ubuntu in SnowFlat.

I also not in favor to change with arial or similar. It will kill readability. If anyone want different font-family, they just have to change few lines of code and done.

Answer 4

Ubuntu Font for me, I agree with other - it is more readable. Personally, Ubuntu font is one of my favorite.

Others should have their say though.
