It might be related to you having a 4K/Retina monitor and the website's author having an older (i.e. regular) display.
The author might never have tested their website on a large display like ours and thus it'll look a bit odd and we have to zoom in.

- amiraliakbari 9y agoYes, it's great for focusing on content. I wish I could enable the reader view by default for a list of sites. Or even better, the browser does so automatically when a page has lots of text and is not responsive/is too small.

- have_faith 9y agoDon't hi-res monitors have UI scaling built in to the OS? so sizes should be roughly comparable
- digi_owl 9y agoSometimes it feels like everything is still done by pixel counting on bitmaps.
- user5994461 9y agoScaling never worked properly on any OS. It's an impossible problem to solve because sizes are given in pixel or percentage. Whatever you try to adjust, it will be utterly wrong on some combination of content and display.
