Does anyone else like to change the font on news articles using Inspect Element?

Also in Word etc, if I've got to spend a lot of time in a large document, I'll usually edit the paragraph body style temporarily to something sans serif. It's just better on screen.

Yes, for sites that use unreadably thin fonts, such as https://stratechery.com

Funnily enough this story, despite extolling the virtues of sans-serif fonts for reading on screens, is typeset in a serif font.
