well i scale things up until text is bigger and even though it would be easier to read a narrow column it would take up more space vertically

if it was up to me i would size the images first and then fit the text around them, like on a side or wherever space was left ...

but hzrd149 (npub1ye5…knpr) or you said that would be wrong because that's not how users expect their post to be displayed ... and that if there are multiple blocks of text and multiple images in a post their sequence must be preserved ...

i don't know why people are so afraid of large fonts. on my largest screen ( 8K 75" that currently doesn't work ) i blow text up until the letters are like half an inch in size. they're still just as sharp as the small text because this is still vector graphics and 8K

i don't know where people get the idea that smaller text is sharper.

yes there is a limit to how large fonts can get before your brain stops recognizing it as text and just thinks it is some kind of abstract art. but if you routinely read large fonts your brain can adapt to it.

most of you grew up reading tiny text printed on paper that's why your brain struggles with larger text. your neural nets are not trained for font size afforded by modern screens so you can't utilize screen real estate properly.
