[center]So I went to edit my dragon's bio and, I can't read this. my eyes are killing me after 4 lines.

In comparison, the font used to be the same as it is here in the forum post editor. (A size 11~12 sans serif) The new font is no longer a sans serif font, meaning that it has the little feet and offshoots of fonts like Times New Roman, and is half the size, around a size 6!
Studies have shown the on a digital screen, our eyes read sans serif fonts easier than serif fonts, while we read serif fonts easier on printed paper.
By making the bio text half its original size, and covered in extraneous serifs, the font becomes very difficult to read without losing your place or making mistakes.
I understand that the font looks more similar to a coder's font, but there was nothing wrong with the font we continue to use in the forums, and I'd like to see that font returned to our dragon's bio edit page as well.
ADDENDUM:
It seems they fixed it? I haven't checked on my laptop, but on mobile I now have the proper font. I see some other members saying they have noticed a change too? I'll be getting on my laptop later today to confirm the issue's been solved!

I totally support this!! I typically use a google docs for long edit sessions because I can't easily read black on white, but this tiny and cluttered font makes it so even small edits have to go through docs.

I hate it hate it hate it
I hope they bring back the old font!
So much easier to read

I totally support this! Just imagine making a mistake on a long item list and leaving a blank [item=
Just let it simmer for a second.
Also this looks like the text you see when entering commands on command prompt on a windows computer and I just really don't like it at all.

Definitely supporting this. It's difficult for me to look at, even for small edits.

Support! I haven’t tried to edit anything today, but that looks insanely painful to read, and near impossible to edit especially on mobile.

Support! I find this font uncomfortable to read, as well.

Support! For me, it doesn't really hurt my eyes, but it definitely is super hard to read and not lose your place.

Yes! Please make it the same as the forum text box, it already works great. (and maybe a preview button while we're at it)
