_Sorry. Misread this as a “ **Gramps Web** ” question rather than a **[Gramps-project.org](http://Gramps-project.org)** “website” question._

No, you are not the only one. (see “[wiki font color is too pale](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/wiki-font-color-is-too-pale/5585)”) The default “Desktop” theme has a font line weight that is FAR too thin for my old eyes. Particularly when using a high-resolution display.

Use the “Mobileview” theme instead. (Link in the footer of each page.)

This is a temporary solution that only lasts until the browsing session cache is purged. A good reason to have a WikiContributor account is that it provides a _persistent_ option to change that CSS Theme.

Another good alternative is to download one of the [offline PDF manual](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/User_manual_translations#Enabled). They are more readable and more searchable.
