It appears to be an issue that they are looking into. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357724

Looks the same to me. Which article in particular have you read?

I was reading on boolean algebra:

I’m currently in India, traveling on a train on mobile data. Not sure if its because of the slow connection

I checked archive.org and I can see the font did change for mobile. I don't notice any change for desktop though.

Glad I'm not the only one who had to run to HN to double check, I'm not too far gone yet :P
