Hi Queen Sassy, Firefox generally follows your Windows scaling or Text Size setting. However, you can independently adjust the scaling in Firefox using the following method:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste devp and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx preference to display an editing field.

The default value of -1.0 instructs Firefox to follow your system setting.

Change the value to 1.5 (positive, not negative) and either press Enter or click the blue check mark button to save the change. That corresponds to 150%.

After a moment, the change should become visible. What do you think? You can re-edit this value up (try 2.0) or down (try 1.33 or 1.25), but please be careful to avoid extreme values that might make Firefox unusable. In case of disaster, try to use the reset button at the far right end of the row to start all over.

Can you find a value that gives you a usable size?
