GOG's forum is freakishly tiny at default levels. That may have worked back in the netbook days but it's rather a bit squinty at 1920 x 1080, and that's with me forcing a higher default font size!

So what's the zoom level you use to not go blind? Personally, I use 150%. And what point size would you prefer to be the default? I use 16; and set Atkinson Hyperlegible as my default font, overriding all others.

No zoom. I use my own style to change font size and family for selected elements on forum. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



.content,
.text_1 {
font-family: 'Play' !important;
}

.post_text_c,
.quot_text,
.topic_s,
.pages,
.text_1 {
font-size: 14px !important;
}

No zoom. The default size is ok for me.

In Palemoon (my default browser), with the No Squint add-on, zoom for GoG is set at 125%, with text set at 110%. Otherwise text is still too small, or horizontal scroll bars appear if I increase the 'Full zoom' level above what I currently use...

No zoom, no style changes, just eyesight.

Site is unusable on a phone. My zoom is significant on my phone. No zoom needed on PC.

For browsing GOG and most other websites, I use a 4K resolution scaled to 225% zoom on everything through Windows OS' scaling options, and also scaled to 165% zoom on text through the Windows scaling options, and also set to 133% zoom through my web browser.

None. 1440p on a 27 inch screen.

Definitely have to zoom in on a phone though.

I use 150% for every site, too!

I use a pair of binoculars.

Alternatively you could set your desktop scale to be 150% if you'd like things to be larger in general.

I don't believe Darvond uses a desktop, or even a window manager for that matter. CLI all the way, from what I gather...

My eyes are about five inches from the screen. A zoom is unnecessary.

No zoom needed on my 1920x1080 monitor. My eyes are near 20/20.

Don't need things to be larger; everything else uses a sensible scale.

You'd be wrong! :p Today it's WindowMaker.

I'm glad for your near perfect vision, but I have a -10 index vision type. Or in the parlance: 200/20+ astigmatic myopia.
