Improved code block sizing & color scheme

I very much agree with this sentiment.

We increased the default font size from 15px to 16px. Changing the code block font size down to 13px is a big shift. Is a couple more characters per line a good trade for readability?


Will inline code styling be updated? At the moment those have different background color, font color, and font family. This is very apparent in posts that interweave a lot of regular text, inline code elements, and code blocks. It makes cross-referencing inline code and block snippets slightly more difficult.


Unrelated to the changes (but related to code blocks) - any ideas for improving the on-hover button icons? At 12px and .7 opacity they’re barely visible (especially when overlapping with code)
