Never quite felt like I have been getting the full benefit from this great big monitor I bought, so finally went looking for how to increase the text size on the screen. Instructions online for your operating system, and I went from 100% to 125% and completely solved having to squint to read it.
Kind of feel like I need to move the monitor back a few inches, now, but I will get it adjusted for comfort soon. Highly recommended, at least to give it a try. Easy enough to change back if you do not like it....Joe

I thought everybody knew if you're using Firefox the little three bar icon in the top right corner lets you increase font size.
When we first started this site the font was really small, so after consulting with Forum Support I managed to increase the size for the entire site to 12.

And in a web browser, "Control +" increases, 'Control -' decreases all fast and quick like....
In case you want some things big, some things smaller.

No great discovery on my part, I knew it could be done, but never tried it on this monitor until now. Makes a huge difference for me. Tom, I am still using IE because every time I install foxfire on a computer I got PO'd within a couple of minutes. Bad enough re-learning how to use a computer every time windows drops a system without doing it to myself over a browser. I guess even tually I will have to either go to FF or chrome because I cannot even view google earth in IE any more...….joe

Also, you should consult your doctor to see if you are healthy enough for having your eyes bug out.
Oh, and make sure you practice Safe Eye Bugging Out - wear protective glasses....

So Chrome transferred all my favorites lists from W7 ! I.......did NOT make Chrome my designated choice.......so I trolley back and forth twixt Ch and IE . So far , I'm coexisting with Ch but I still spend much more time on IE . The program list on Ch is greater for Utube than on IE , probably to motivate ME to use Ch exclusively We'll see how this goes ! , fordy

Could be, could be. With that line of thinking maybe it would have been better if Obama had those ears of his circumcised.
ETA: we are so gonna get taken to the woodshed.
