Looking to get a quick pulse check from folks - how do people feel about the game's small font size?

Personally, I have trouble reading it. I usually need my browser zoom on this site at 125% to comfortably read, sometimes 150%. I haven't changed the overall layout of the site since it was created in 2010, and a lot has changed since then. We're all older and probably not seeing as well, plus monitors are bigger, 4k resolution is a thing, etc.

I know UI redesigns are often (and very understandably) met with apprehension, but would people generally be in favor of (a) increasing the font size and (b) increasing the width of the UI (probably - will need to look in Google Analytics at what browser resolutions are most common for players nowadays)? Both of the current values for those settings feel outdated. That's about all I'm really thinking of (i.e. not a complete overhaul of everything in the UI).

None of this is decided - I'm really just looking for a general feel for what people think about this. If I do it, I'll be careful about retaining current information density. And for people that like things small, you can always use browser zoom in the opposite direction. I just think the current default isn't very modern.

I'm fine with the font size, however I am likely a minority. I actually prefer to zoom outwards most of the time. Most of my browsers are set to 90%

I am also using 125% zoom, text is to small for me without the zoom xD

It was only 110% zoom, thought it was more.

I'm stock 100 zoom on all my browsers and like the current size. Possible that I'd even go 90% like nos but seeing any graphics or bits of text that don't scale in a perfect ratio gives me a brain aneurysm.

Alright, maybe it's just me that's going blind. :P I'll maybe play around with it and see how it looks.
