Having smaller font for replies in discussion threads decreases readability. This is a poor redesign and makes using a smaller screen very difficult if not impossible. This is as an accessibility issue and should offer an option to be turned off.
Hi @dsemb - Because you have raised this concern after the official launch on July 20, I will move the idea submitted in April into the New status in Ideas and Themes.

Hi @dsemb ...
I'm not seeing smaller font in a discussion reply that I just tried out in my own sandbox course. See the yellow circled area. Seem to be the same font size to me.
As teacher, my posts appear too small. Much smaller than students' posts which presumably are in the default 12pt. If I go to Student Mode and post as "Test Student", the posts are properly sized, and the posts from "Teacher" are too small. So this problem appears to depend on role?
I have a disability that prevents me from using large screens and can only use Canvas on my phone. The Discussion replies are SO SMALL that I cannot read them. This is absolutely an accessibility issue and one that I hope is resolved ASAP!
Is there any update on this issue? Is currently impacting one of my students.
My students are telling me that they can't resubmit assignments where they have already made a submission via the google drive external tool. The due date and 'until' date have not passed, and the number of submissions allowed is 'unlimited'.

During the exam I receive the warning message as follows: Please note that the adjusted time limit you've set extends beyond the "Until Time" of [Apr 16, 2026, 11:30 AM] for this quiz. The quiz will automatically submit at the "Until Time" you've…

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
