On mobile devices as well? Genuinely asking. I keep a battery of custom CSS files for every site I visit just to keep the text settings in sync across OSes, browsers and devices. HN's CSS for example is...quaint I guess but incredibly antiquated.

Here are my settings on Safari iOS, which get added as you change font sizes across sites: https://i.imgur.com/w2lJev4.png . You can see that I clearly agree with you regarding HN :)

That's good for one browser on one device on one OS. Not for consistent display across OSes, browsers and devices.

A default zoom setting that is global to the browser does not in any way fix the problem of different websites using different font sizes.

It does if you have a huge screen or feel that all sites' fonts are too small, right? Anyway, every browser I use also persists zoom settings chosen for each site.

This thread was about this specific site using a 13px font. You replied that browsers have zooming and you pointed out the global zooming controls.

Sure, it can be used to fix a completely different problem. Great.

My only complaint is that I'd love NCAA boxscores like the pros, but otherwise, I love it!
