Hello,

Can you please confirm that the issue is that the first post on the site has a bigger text size, compared to the replies to the post when viewing on the Firefox browser on an Android device.

If so, could you please send the link for the site, so that we can check if there is any issue with the HTML/CSS code on the site.

Thank you

This is a common feature of smartphone browsers in which desktop sites are text inflated to make the main body of text larger. This tends to break down in forums or sites that provide short summaries of articles.

You can disable or change the inflation levels in the Firefox for Android settings.

  • With Firefox open
  • Press the phone's menu button or the three dot button in the upper right
  • Select settings (you might need to scroll the menu or select more)
  • Select Display
  • Select Text Size
  • Press the small 'A' till the text does not shrink any more
  • Press set

Future pages will not be inflated.
