If it was just me then no one would buy books with smaller font sizes (for example mass-market paperbacks) but I can’t be the only one with this problem, right?

People are different. Some prefer larger font sizes, some smaller; some want larger line spacing, some smaller; some like shorter lines/larger margins, others prefer longer lines/smaller margins. Some want a bit of space between paragraphs, for others it's anathema. And so on. There is no one size fits all, like with most things in life.
Personally I have no real problem with the font size in mass market paperbacks, but having been a MR member for a decade, I know for sure that you're not the only one who prefers larger sizes.
