The biggest problem I can see is that most infoboxes from most wikis can't handle the new big font, which is messing with their intended designs everywhere. What was supposed to fit in a single line, now is split in two. Admins all around the world will have to redesign their infoboxes to provide more horizontal space. The problem is that this new layout also reduced the available horizontal space of a page to almost 60% of its original width.

Don't get me wrong. When I first saw the change, I thought it was no big deal, and maybe even liked it a bit as text was now easier to read due to the increased font, but when I started seeing how it affected and messed up a lot of features, I honestly just can't find no fun in editing anymore. In fact, I haven't made a single edit today on any of the various wikis I edit daily. I simply just don't enjoy it now.

I've visited this blog about 20 times today, hoping someone will provide a solution or waiting for a staff member to tell us they're working on an alternative for those who don't like it, but all I can see is people trying to justify the change and telling us this is better for everyone just because they say it is.

This, my friend, is a sad day for editors around the world. :'(
