Need darker font from website.

I have low vision. Most (many) websites use text in a relatively light grey which is extremely difficult for me to read, even with magnification.

Is there any way for Firefox to substitute a darker font (maybe just make it bold) for what that website is actually sending out?

Helpp would be most appreciated. I am getting to the point I cannot use the internet easily because of this issue.

Running Windows 10, with all updates. Firefox is up to date.

Many thanks in advance,

Mike

There are many add-ons for modifying the appearance of websites. This one sounds like it is directly addressed to light text color (I haven't tried it myself):

Here's an example of one to change all the colors around, which may be more than you are interested in:

Hopefully one of those is helpful, please let us know how you do.
