Feedbunch currently uses the default Bootstrap tipography, so I'm a bit surprised that it gives you trouble. However a couple of you have mentioned it so I'll definitely look into it.

What do the rest of you think about the tipography? Too small, hard to read, good the way it is?

The typography isn't bad . . . but for an app whose purpose is to read articles it should be great!

Helvetica/Arial is common enough, and sites like the BBC use it for body text, but there are so many free fonts available that are much readable for running text.

I'm getting 14 px text for article bodies. Usually something closer to 17 px is optimal, and I think zooming the page 120% looks best (14 px ยท 1.2 = 16.8 px).
