In Firefox, read this:
Text Zoom
Click on " Allow pages to choose their own font" which is shown on the web page.

Yes, with FireFox
- Keyboard:
- To increase the text size, press and hold CtrlCmd while pressing +.
- To decrease the text size, press and hold CtrlCmd while pressing -.
- To reset the text size, press and hold CtrlCmd while pressing 0.
Mouse: If your mouse has a scroll wheel, press and hold Ctrl while scrolling up to decrease the text font
But I just forget all these commands after a few years,,,,
