Details

This tweek makes Hacker News easier to read by increasing font sizes across key page elements, including story titles, subtext, comments, rank numbers, scores, and form fields. It also adds more comfortable comment line spacing and slightly increases spacing between items in the list.

The top Hacker News header is enlarged and stretched to full width, while the main content remains centered at its normal width. The page is offset so the fixed header does not overlap the content, preserving the familiar layout while making navigation text more prominent.
