      Hi there everyone,

      The sites that look like this in Firefox, Edge and Safari look like what's on the left while Opera presents it as what's on the right.

      The text is so thin that it's impossible to distinguish between font color, which is how a lot of forums distinguish read and unread. I've checked and the font settings are identical between Firefox and Opera.

      Is there some way I can make the font in Opera look like that in Firefox?

      Thanks for your time!

        Could be the ad-blocker is blocking some webfont they are using; you might try disabling it on that page.

          Issue persists with ad blocker disabled.

          Any other suggestions would be most welcome. The font is causing me to go blind, I think 🙂

          Thanks for your time!

            Can you post a link to the page in the photos so that we can see how it looks here?

              @sgunhouse Sure, very sorry I didn't do so earlier. Here's the page I'm looking at:

              https://forum.fivem.net/latest

              It's on a Win 10 machine.

                Hmm ... my font isn't quite as bold as the one on the left, but I do see the color change (after I reload the page - it doesn't change until I actually do that).

                  @sgunhouse Is there any way you know of to force the font to change for me? Even if it's an addon/extension that allows style changes. I spend a lot of time on some of these forums and it really does cause a headache to try to read such a thin font for me.

                    By definition, an extension such as Stylus can do that - though not having used it I can't say how difficult it is.
