Sorry if I go one point lower than your puny hu-man eyes can adjust to, but size 7 doesn't look a damn thing like a footnote or muttered-under-breath or anything tiny text is supposed to represent.
It really just looks like a failed CSS style.

If you can't read this, get a decent browser.

Actually my default is size 20, so most everything else looks like a footnote.

Size 6 works, yeah.

Crtl+Mouse Wheel to optimize text size for base reality

EDIT: Sorry, won't happen again.

In seriousness though, is anyone else aware that Crtl+Mouse Wheel adjusts the text size in Firefox?

20pt or 20px?  20px is kinda big but reasonable.

Yes.

It's still obnoxious to have to do that just to read a fucking post.

Hey guys this link is awesome.

All the years of Chrome's development were apparently for the sole purpose of being able to kill that particular Rickroll mid-run. It is a wonderful power, not to be taken up lightly.

Plus it messes with the rest of the fonts and I lose track of the correct ratio when I try to downsize and and and

Not without killing the entire browser. Same with Firefox, or at least that was the case months ago when Rickrolling was still something people did regularly.

An ode to Rickrolling:

Never gonna give you up!
never gonna :endit:



EDIT:
Fun fact, Classic quit the joke there not because it was stupid, but because that was all of the song he remembers.
