out of the blue, the posts on this board and many other sites starting showing up almost unreadable for me due to a change in font.  At least I'd call it a font problem in that it's really faint.  Thread titles are normal darkness.  It's the posts that are not.  Using Chrome on a PC.  I've done some digging but am not having much luck at understanding how to fix it.  Anyone run across this lately with a quick fix?

I gave up and switched out of night reading mode on tapa.

Settings, advanced, scroll to the bottom and select reset settings. It will reset EVERYTHING so use with caution.

Look for an OLDS setting.

after more digging, I identified the problem font as Roboto Light.  Apparently that little shit causes problems for some users on Chrome.  Went into windows settings and deleted it.  Now I can read shit again.  The font still looks a little different on Surly from before the problem started, but the brightness is restored.  

testing - can you still read this?

Have the same issue on my Dell laptop at home but not on the Lenovo at the office. Using Chrome in both places.
