Firefox on Android

With Google getting punchy with Chrome and looking to block ad blockers, even though it minimally affects me, I am looking at Firefox. Love the low memory footprint, but the Android app has an issue. Half the time text that looks fine in chrome is tiny, and I cannot find a way to increase it's zoom level. Anybody have any extension or add on that can handle that or know the app setting location for it?

I've been using Firefox on Android for years. I use uBlock Origin with it for Ad Blocking.

Make sure you in the Firefox settings, under Accessibility, you enable "Always enable zoom". This allows you to zoom pages with a finger pinch that normally don't support it.

Under Accessibility I also enable the "Use system font size" setting and I have my system font set to Largest. May or may not help for you depending on your screen size. I have a Pixel 2 XL and lots of real estate and love the larger system font.
