I just noticed you have different themes with different fonts in vanilla lemmy.world. It could be worth a shot to try them.
It’s in lemmy.world/settings --> Theme
- Comment on My possibly degenerating brain and typing comments: Does font make a difference? Can I change this site's font? 2 weeks ago:
Font or contrast can make a difference for people having trouble to read due to eye problems of disorders like dyslexia.
I cannot tell anything about your case but you could try using accessibility settings in your browser to replace the default fonts entirely with specialized ones or just make it bigger.
As for your problem, it can be anything from natural ageing of your eyes to something far worth. Please keep an eye (no pun intended) on it and consider seeking medical help if your problem stays. Good luck! - Comment on Why do media always specify a car's model in news stories? 2 weeks ago:
I have to admit my knowledge of cars is really limited…
it’s also helpful in situations where the perpetrator is still at large. That’s a good point, and I think it answers my question, thank you!
It’s as relevant as describing the clothes a criminal is wearing and it tends to stay with stories written years later. - Comment on I should have stretched first 2 weeks ago:

- Comment on Why do media always specify a car's model in news stories? 2 weeks ago:
Before searching, I didn’t know a Toyota Landcruiser was a 4x4 SUV, which is the relevant piece of information in this case.
I used this example because it was the one that made me wonder why the car’s brand is always specified but I hear that nearly everywhere: “The killer drove his Ford Puma to the victim’s house…”, “they fled the robbery in a Pontiac Firebird” (I invented these ones).
The only other case of brands or models being mentioned that I can think of are planes, rockets and weapons which are not common objects everyone will buy in their life.

In France we had this satirical TV show called Les Guignols de l’Info (the News Muppets) which was really active from 1990 to 2010.
They really liked to make fun of George W. Bush, portraying him as a huge idiot acting childishly, obeying capitalism and obsessed with war.

- Comment on Planck units 1 year ago:
By the way, the evaporation of a Planck particule should generate a power of P = Planck energy / Planck time = 3,629 × 10^52 W --> 36.29 million million million million million million million Gigawatts. More than enough to power a time machine.
- Comment on Planck units 1 year ago:
Need an explanation? The smallest possible black hole is called a Planck particle. It should have a mass of a Planck mass, a size of an Planck length, should evaporate in a Planck time, releasing a Planck energy.
