24in Monitor. I could see how it might not scale down well, maybe they need to introduce the UI scaling features that Gmail has that might help with a lot of peoples issues. The userscripts I tried basically just removed a lot of margins and padding around content, so maybe those might suit you on a small display?
- DiabloD3 15y agoThe lack of padding is what makes it really bad. Its now entirely too cluttered. I quit using Google Reader, and I'm trying NewsBlur although its far from perfect, its a clear step up.
- conesus 15y agoWhat could be improved about NewsBlur?
- AdamGibbins 15y ago#1 thing stopping me from switching is the lack of stable reliable Android app with syncing and offline support.
- rkudeshi 15y agoIf I remember correctly, Google engineers are given the choice of one 30" monitor or a two 24" monitors, which is what the new Google Reader was presumably built on and perhaps optimized for. However, given the fact that laptops dominate computer sales nowadays, I'm downright amazed they didn't test it further on small screens.

- nl 15y agoIf I remember correctly, Google engineers are given the choice of one 30" monitor or a two 24" monitors, which is what the new Google Reader was presumably built on and perhaps optimized for. They also get a laptop (most choose a 15" MBP). I seriously doubt non one saw it on a smaller screen.
- wyclif 15y agoHe's right. It definitely doesn't scale down well to small monitors and 13".
