I do have a bit of hope. Another scourge of both print and online magazines seems to be waning a bit. I mean the practice of placing the text of an article over a picture, and then either varying the colour of the text to sort of contrast with the bit of the picture it’s over, or even worse, not worrying about how some of the text disappears because it’s the same colour as the background.

But not much hope. The poor backgrounds were a choice of the magazine editors themselves, while the online formats are controlled by Someone Else. (Last time I complained to a magazine about their appalling online format, they said they weren’t responsible for it, since it was contracted out to another company.)
