In the latest update (89.0) the size of the font in drop-down menus has increased. When I go to my book marks the number that show on the screen has decreased by 28% which means a lot more scrolling. The original font size was very read able so why change. The question is, how can I reset the font size back to the original size? Geoff

I have the same problem that I believe geoff251 is seeing but I don't think it's font size. It's like the paragraph settings in Word. The spacing between lines/rows has increased by at least half. All of my drop-down menu's are much larger and now run off the page. The text in my Menu Bar and Toolbars look right but those bars have gotten taller and take up valuable room. And I've noticed that now some pages run right off the left and right edges where they didn't BEFORE 89.0 happened!

jonmikl1962 I agree. It does look more like paragraph spacing. There was no need for it , it's annoying and needs to be fixed.

I wish they would have left it the way is was presented before the last update. It is very annoying.

You can possibly use code in userChrome.css to override changes coming in Firefox 89+ with the new Proton design.
