Research direction
Start with the footnote font-size rule in assets/css/reboot.css around lines 3858–3860 and inspect how the Jekyll theme loads or overrides it. Confirm the preferred override location, increase the size to a readable value such as 0.9em, and compare the rendered footnotes on the linked Pride Spotlight page.

Description
The footnote font size is set to 0.75em which ends up being rendered too small to read comfortably (at least for me). Could we perhaps increase it to 0.9em or similar? See an example here: https://us-rse.org/2023-06-05-pride-spotlight-sophie-wilson/#fn:chm1
The css that sets the size seems to be in reboot.css: https://github.com/USRSE/usrse.github.io/blob/1d5baeca95d8463792e081c075bb99bc344a6350/assets/css/reboot.css#L3858C39-L3860
I'm not very familiar with jekyll and themes, however, so I'm not sure of the preferred way to override this.
