I see you are also not using the same version though, your header |
| 14 |
says "Linux x86_64". Also obviously sometimes we see things like |
| 15 |
someone installs v2.8 and their config lives through 3.5, by which time |
| 16 |
the config GUI has been wrecked and the user insists what they did works |
| 17 |
(and it did, in v2.8), on and on. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Anyway it's over. |
| 20 |
The important information is it will fail the users who need everything to |
| 21 |
Just Work and need larger fonts. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
If you (or if anyone using it *on* *linux*) manage(s) to double the |
| 24 |
size of the default fonts in the folder list and message list I'll |
| 25 |
listen, but otherwise I'm done looking at that and have seen enough |
| 26 |
of it to feel justified with that decision. It *is* only one of many |
| 27 |
things I have to investigate today, you know. :) |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Also, a lot of people seem to be confused about which font I'm talking |
| 30 |
about. They seem to think you just go into settings and change "the |
| 31 |
fonts", but those are only for the message body. The folder list and |
| 32 |
message list are stubbornly tiny. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Finally, the fact that they have add-ons,. extensions, themes, and all that |
| 35 |
and not a single thing comes up searching for "accessibility" or "fonts" |
| 36 |
is a pretty strong clue... |
