HELP!

Does anyone's Forum look like this? It has suddenly become almost impossible to read. Dark red letters on a black background??

I have two computers and both became like this at the same time.

Same here as well.
If you click on your ID (near top right corner of window) it will open a new dialog box. Click on Preferences.
This opens a new window. In the Style variation box select Light. This will brighten things up and make things more like they used to be.
 
On my computer, when I click on the "Style Variation" box it shows, System, Light, & Dark. No matter which one I choose and then refresh my screen it will always go to "System". My screen always looks normal.
 
Why in the world would the default be an unreadable format??
The default in this case is "system". What that means depends on other settings within your OS or browser. That's probably why "system" displays as light for some folks and is dark for others.
 
On your computer at the top right click on the 3 vertical dots. Then scroll down to Settings, next to the gear wheel, and click on it. On the left drop down menu click on Apperance. Across from it in the middle you will see Mode. click on this to see "Device, Dark, Light". Mine is set to Device.
