I'm playing around with my blog's CSS again (what else are weekends for!?)

Do you prefer <blockquote>s with or without a solid black border?

Which do you think is more readable / attractive?

Block quote with a solid black border.

I've taken the agregate of all your fine suggestions and changed the <blockquote> to this.

No outline, thick left border, 75% width, centred on the page.

If you don't like it - send a pull request 😆

Without I think.

But also a little more contrast between the backgrounds might help. (May just be my colour vision.)

@Edent I prefer the distinction the border gives, but it could be more subtle; perhaps a different colour or even a drop shadow?

Although famously, I am no designer.

@Edent I think it’s better without, although with your side borders on the main content, it might be more consistent. But overall, still without.

@Edent I prefer quotes with a border on the left edge

@LonM that might be a good compromise.
