Hello everyone, as you have already most likely noticed, unless you’re using something like a terminal browser or you are blind, rigby’s styling has changed rather drastically. This styling change is for a few reasons. The previous
design was, to put it plainly, hideous. I attempted to justify it by claiming minimalism as my reasons for this, but in all honesty CSS is painful to work with and I dreaded making significant changes - I wasn’t sure if it was the
greatest thing to put myself through at the time.

Regardless, I’ve finally done it and I have mixed feelings about the end result. I am fairly happy with the browse pages, and profile pages, but I feel strongly that
I can improve upon the look of the comment sections and form stylings. I’m also importing font-awesome as a stylesheets for the icons I’m using, but this does create a substantial increase in initial page loads which I could cut down
on by using the font-awesome react library with webpack tree-shaking. Furthermore, the two new fonts that are being requested, Inter and IBM Plex Mono, do also substantially increase initial load times. However I consider these a
necessary evil, as the original rigby font was merely the standard system monospaced font, which can be quite awful on several operating systems.

Anyways, if you have any suggestions for what can be modified please let me know or create a pull request on the project GitHub page.
