You can now change the default font on the site

[Brock Beauchamp]

Due to a couple of complaints about the body font, we've created an alternative. You can now go to your profile, edit profile, and scroll until you see radio buttons that read "Default" and "Roboto". Flip the font over to Roboto and the site body font changes.

It's still a little buggy and I have some cleanup work to do but it's 90% of the way there so I thought I'd let everyone know about it.

Much better. I'd still prefer a typeface with a serif (Times New Roman is the GOAT), but Roboto is much, much more legible than the default was on my devices.

Thank you so much for putting in the effort.

(FWIW, I noticed over the last week that the default was actually legible on some devices, and not on others. Issues with the default font may have something to do with the resolution of the device on which the site is being viewed.)

What, no Curlz or Papyrus options?

I'm going to force your account into wingdings.

Won't really change the readability of half my posts tbh

Just FYI, I noticed that when editing an existing post, it forced my font back to the default. Then it reverted upon submission of the post.

Not sure if it's a big enough issue to warrant troubleshooting, but it might be a fun project if you're in need of a silly little distraction.

So when you go into an editing window, the entire site font changes or just the font in the text editor?

Entire site, strangely enough.
