Why is Firefox slightly more zoomed out on Linux? (top is windows, bottom is linux)

Rather than zoomed out, could it be a different font-size?

Maybe you zoomed it out, which makes you a zoomer (lol)

For whatever reason increasing my font size then decreasing it back to what it was before fixes the zoom. It doesn't last between logouts though, which is unfortunate.

yet in real life 9 billion people complain about Linux scaling and it's a major obstacle for anyone who wants to use a monitor setup from this century

ctrl +
ctrl mousewheel up

// zoom out

Sperging about Linux will not magically make Windows not shit.

OP explicitly is asking about Linux versus Windows, which makes Linux scaling problems as relevant as any on Windows.

Nvm, I turned on Custom DPI Scaling and it fixed it.

Windows has wrong DPI while Linux respects the correct DPI. Same with font rendering. Windows has bugged shit font rendering but people are confused when they use Linux and see the correct quality font rendering.
