I'm like a dog with a new food bowl, I'm going to have to look at a little bit.
It does have a nice look though.

Like has been stated will take some getting used too, but looks good.  I too will have to get knee dep in the settings soon.  Just had time the last couple of days.
A gun is like a parachute; if you need it and don't have it, you probably won't need it again.

Same thing as before, nothing changed, just a different look.

A new coat of paint doesn't change what's under it. ...  :( 

FWIW, the font is too small for some members.

Like the way pictures post and look now.  Feels "cleaner" and faster. Edits feel good. Dates and other info are back. Good start.

I disagree.  I find the font is harder to see well and significantly slows down my reading speed.

I have to agree with that, the font is harder to read.

I would respectfully suggest folks having issues use their computer's "zoom" feature to change from 100% to 110% (or more), so reading gets a lot easier for those effected, w/o having to shift the view to read lines for their full width.

I'm already always zoomed in--and it's generally more than just 10%. I use the "triple-tap magnifier zoom" on my Mac and set the accessibility issues on my iPhone to increase font sizes. For me, it's not just an issue of the viewable size of the font.

I shouldn't have to zoom as my monitor is 65-inches diagonal and I'm an arm length away.  The font itself is the issue rather than the size.

A client of mine got the email about the 2 1/2" Ranger at $299 when he tried to "add to cart" he said they were "not available"! He was a little too late! lol!

He checked the box to be notified when they were "back in stock" hoping they would be $299! lol!

Agreed.  Type a couple rows of skinny and wide letters, and you'll see it's a stylized monospace font.  That's good for aligning data, but a poor choice for ease of reading.

Then again, the Post mode is different from the viewing and Edit mode, so it's only monospace sometimes.  :/  That has me somewhat confused.

You can always use the control and mouse scroll to make the font larger...

This silly font sucks - BIG TIME. PLEASE get rid of it. OTOH, the dark theme is wonderful, much more restful on the eyes. Its only taken the computer industry 40 years to cycle back to what's been known since at least WW II.

Maybe take a poll and do what's best for the majority here.
You may not need it but should have it.
