Bug Report

Describe the issue:

The font size of the comments appears to be random (see attached screenshot).

The global and comment font size settings don’t seem to have any effect.

It doesn’t seem to correlate with comment length, depth, age, score, or any other variable I can think of.

I just updated the app and it’s still happening.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a post’s comments.
  2. Scroll. Unfold folded comments.
  3. Notice the rich variety of font sizes.
  4. Struggle to read the smaller ones because you’re not as young as you used to be.

      Thought so too at first, but in the screenshot you can see shorter and longer comments with both smaller and bigger text.

      Same with score, age, level… so far I haven’t found anything that always correlates with the text size.
