Web interface is blurry today

Does the web interface seem blurry to anyone else today?

I don't recall any issues yesterday. Other websites are fine. But all the fonts look a little blurry on FM to me. I'm using Chrome (up to date) on Win10, and already tried refreshing the page and restarting the browser.

It seems normal to me on Chrome today, including with Win 10.. First thing always to try is Ctrl-0 in case you are in some kind of zoom state. Which theme are you using? Have you tried starting Chrome in incognito mode? Are there any extensions that could be affecting things?

I'm on the standard theme.

It looks fine in incognito mode, so it must be a setting. None of my extensions should (or have in the past) affect it. Odd.

It didn't show any zoom going on (usually a little icon appears in the taskbar), but Crtl-0 shifted things slightly. Still blurry, but Ctrl-- (zoom out) followed by Ctrl-0 again seems to have fixed it.

Weird, but fixed now. But thanks for the suggestions!

If it was more than one website, you might be right. Selectively dirty, refracting only FM's colors?

Oddly enough, zooming in and out using Ctrl-mousewheel didn't fix the issue. (I had tried that previously)

More seriously: occasionally I see a similar effect on various predominantly text sites when the internet connection is slow. It looks a bit like the progressive jpeg picture, when a very blurry version is loaded first, then something better, and then even better, and finally the final fine image is shown.
But this isn't persistent and should sort itself out in seconds.

So the summary of my couple of dozen words is: I have no clue.

All good now. Ctrl-0, then Ctrl--, then Ctrl-0 again fixed it.

Odd, to say the least, but sometimes with computers it is too difficult to find out the reasons for bizarre behavior. At least it is no longer a practical issue, though it would drive me crazy trying to figure out what was going on if it hit me.
