Hello! I've just started using FF for Android, but on old.reddit.com for example, the text is WAY too small. Is there no way to enforce a minimum font size on Android?

Hi

I have had a look at that site and (unlike the main Reddit site) it does not look like it has been optimised for mobile browsers.

There are some settings that I have found in the configuration settings of Firefox for Android that can set a minimum font size, however while they do make the words bigger, they do not improve the spacing on the page.

Thanks Seburo -

You may be right, But old.reddit.com does look FAR better in Chrome - the text is much more reasonably sized - than in FF. I'd dearly like to give up Chrome but if one of my main sites used is basically unreadable on FF then there's no point.

Have you tried in Firefox Preview (available from the Google Play Store)?

Is it just this site, or are other sites also displaying like this?

This is the only one I've found, but I've only been using it for a day...

Mm Unicode font

I think this could be an issue with that site rather than Firefox for Android.
