Colors and accessibility

It is just me, or is it hard to read this website? I'm reading this website fullscreen on 22" monitor, and it's still too hard to read, as I find the main text (Raleway 16pt) too thin. Also the text changes sizes dramatically, from 16px (main text) to 22px (quote) to 13px (sub-text).

Thought I was just getting old ;) but yes, the thin text was annoying on mobile — harder to read while scrolling through the page

If anyone else have a problem reading the text, please let me know! Otterpro, if you want, send your browser specs to me at [email protected] and I will check if anything strange is going on.

Also, the color & background of the article changes when you use the color-picker to give you more visual feedback of the selected colors.

Ironically the text is hard to read for those without high DPI displays.

On a high DPI screen I still find it a little straining. To me the width is acceptable enough but the color is about as light as I'd want, and a shade of dark blue that strangely blends with the off-axis color-distortion of my inexpensive LCD panel so it makes me feel like my eyes aren't adjusting properly.
