I hate so it much, looks ugly but then Google's products never have been design efficient. Google has been "playing" with their pages lately. Changing colors first, then font sizes, showing slightly different search results than my local Google domain.

Ah I see it. It's only available on Google.com at the minute, not on the regional sites (i.e. .co.uk, etc). I don't really have a problem with the font, but the fact that the search buttons float at the bottom of the suggestion list sucks.

On a minor sidenote, I've got a HTML validator built into my Firefox. How does the google.com front-page page fail validation with 99 errors?

Hi...

I am marry here.So I like your idea of taking poll like this way.Well as per my point of view i don't have any problem with that type of font of Google,but i don't mean that everybody should think like this way.All have their thoughts.Thank you for sharing the comment...

I think it looks ugly and out of place, the only sensible reason I can see for doing this is for people with poor eyesight, but they would be using a higher DPI or high-contrast theme. Which to my mind just makes this change silly.

Will help me move to bing though.

Same, another reason to not use Google as much for me.

It seems they have made the width of the textbox smaller and I love it even more now. I used to think Google Search was ugly... I still don't think it looks any where near as nice as Bing but this is an improvement and I actually think it looks okay now, especially as the textbox is now consistent with Google Chrome's location bar (size, font).

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
    • CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
    • My issue is I can't access the forum on mobile if the site is set to Desktop mode on Vivaldi because it can't complete the Cloud flare am I a bot check! I know this is a Vivaldi issues as it has started happening on all cloud flare check sites, it's so annoying, I've reported it but no fix yet.
