FR font issues

Vanity post.
My first, and probably only, as I am not prone to doing so. I read FR mostly on my Android phone. Recently the thread comments are showing up in an impossibly small font height. The initial post, the plea for donations, as well as some comments are in a legible size, but most comments are unreadable. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it a recent Android bug? I am logged in, and am going to take a shower while I wait to try and read the impossibly small replies from fellow FReepers.

I think it may have something to do with the pledge banner, but recently is the first I have experienced this unfortunate phenomenon. Example right here. The preview of this post is normal, but this comment is microscopic.

Try it on another browser and see if it turns out the same.

Your fonts will be fixed once you donate!
Well maybe,

Ha! I had the same problem on my windows phone, I suffered for 2 years and eureka, I discovered that it was because I was logged into FR!
Once you log in, the custom settings seem to affect the formatting. I don’t know which setting, so I just stay logged out unless I want to reply to a post.

I get small font periodically on my iPad. I simply increase the size of the font by expanding the article. I think it has to do with the code in the article itself not the donation items.

I am seeing the same thing on my phone. Some posts come through at full size - then back to mini fonts.

I’m a monthly donor. Don’t typically do freepathons unless they drag on. It does seem to be only on my phone (chrome). Looks normal on the iPad. It seems to be a recent phenomenon.

I use safari for my cell phone a chrome on my iPad. I haven’t had problems in the past. I usually don’t login while on the because I have manly hands and type all that well on the phone.

Honestly, I have no idea how or why you would be experiencing such a thing. I mean, it's not like we all use HTML font selection just to frustrate folks like you.
Not us.
Nope.
Never.

“Did you switch browsers?”
Only have chrome on my phone. Problem doesn’t appear on my iPad or Mac. I wonder if there has been a recent chrome “upgrade”? Any recommendations for an alternate android browser?
