On many web sites text is too small to read. If I zoom in to read it then the page is too wide and I have to scroll constantly.

As an example try slashdot.org in desktop mode. The page looks fine in Chrome but the text is too small in Firefox.

I tried the "use system font size" setting, it made no visible difference.

How do I make the site readable in Firefox?

Thanks, but it doesn't work. The text remains too wide and I have to scroll if it is zoomed to a usable size.

Hi

I would recomend not using desktop mode for those sites and let them display in mobile mode naturally. This should make the pages display better for you on your mobile device.
