It's the exact same size I use in my NG reader and it's perfectly readable to me. Maybe your resolution is too high. If it's changed, other people may find it too big, so it's hard to say that it's the page's fault. As far as portables, I can't imagine any portable that would use a high enough screen resolution for that font size to look too small. Plus, any half-way decent browser these days should have an easy zoom function. For me, in FF2 all I need to do is Ctrl-ScrollWheel. About the lack of tree view, that's really a VIM vs Emacs, tabs vs spaces kind of an issue. And as far as the other points, like you said, it's all customizable anyway. I've used many forums that have all the junk turned off. Plus I use AdBlock Plus ( http://adblockplus.org/en/ ) and NoScript, so I don't see any ads on that page (If I didn't use those, I would find the vast majority of the web literally unusable).
