I wish i had that screen.
OK. That was a cheap one.
Generally increasing the “medium font size” in Konqueror of course “solved” this problem, but it leads to problems on other sites (and yes, Google has a bigger font for me in Konqueror. It does not in Firefox).
I still think a solution like on http://www.bengt-martensson.de/software/index.html (provide a reasonalbe default, but let the users select for themselves) is nice.

Whether a font size is readable or not depends on browser, operating system, screen resolution, monitor qualitiy, fonts, and last, but not least, personal taste and visual faculty.
Therefore all modern browsers offer the possibility to configure fonts and font sizes–you can, for example specify a minimum font-size. This (and other configuration options) empowers you to customize your browser according to your hardware/software requirements and you personal needs.

With a freshly created account on a 10.1 (so all Browsers have the [SUSE] default configuration) news.opensuse.org has exactly the same font size as Google and is perfectly readable on 10280×1024.

So go fix your browser settings and think twice about publicly bashing your colleagues next time.

I did not know, that this blog is a part of the openSUSE feedback system! But thank you for the information! We take a look on this.

I designed the new openSUSE-look and I’m really open for feedback. That means: If you have problems, ideas, wishes, just let me know! rlihm@opensuse.org.

Have fun!
