Font help needed
Is there a way to adjust the normal font? I am having a hard problem reading the posts. The font is too small and too lite for my eyes. I've looked through the user settings and couldn't find anything. I hope I've just overlooked it.

Most web browsers allow you to zoom in. Control-Plus is the usual keystroke to zoom in. It works that way with Firefox and Microsoft Edge.

Thank you all. I haven't had a computer in two years. I had been making do with my Samsung tablet. I finally got a new laptop on Black Friday. I had totally forgotten that simple fix.
Thanks again! |

CTRL + Mousewheel can also be used to zoom on most browsers and applications. Great when you want to keep one hand on the mouse always.

Ctrl+0 returns to the default font in many Windows programs.

On Mac, it CMD instead of CTRL so CMD+ to zoom in, ... in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. The CMD plus mousewheel works in Firefox but not in Safari and Chrome.
