I like the postgresql email whole thread view. But I also feel like
smaller texts are kind of not easy to read.
Personally I found this one[0] website design email view quite intuitive.

Thanks for sharing this.

When the postgresql.org website was last redesigned, the archives
initially followed a somewhat similar format. The feedback from primary
archives users said that the design did not fit their workflow. You can
read the thread here[1].

If you want to make the text larger, you can use the browser zoom
functionality to make it larger.

We could possibly explore making the text in the individual message
views larger, but I'd like to collect more feedback on that first.

Thanks,

Jonathan

The pushback in the previous discussion was very much about not
doing anything like that. I'm an old man with poor eyesight,
but I still find our existing layout choices to be fine. I think
the OP would be best advised to set his browser to zoom in by
whatever amount he needs.
