Description

Just recently switched to FDroid only and was delighted that a good FOOD Reddit client exists. I've used Reddit is Fun before and it took me a few days to adjust to the new workflow.

However I'm still having a hard time reading the headlines. There's a lot of information in a tiny and very crowded column and the font colors are too similar to be able to distinguish them easily from the headlines.

I'm not a designer and the app is incredibly nicely designed so I don't have any implementation suggestions and I'd like to hear what you think could be done to make the headline more prominent and easier to read.

PS: I'm using a Nexust 5x with the latest LineageOS nightly
