Scaling up font sizes in Chromium.
Longtime readers have probably seen the odd post about my getting fed up with Firefox and migrating my workflow (and much of my online data archive) to Chromium, which has been significantly faster if nothing else than Firefox lately. Of course, due to Windbringer's screen resolution I immediately ran into problems with just about every font size being too small, including the text in the URL bar, the menus, and the add-ons that I use. On a lark I went back to my font sizes in Keybase article and give it a try. Lo and behold, when I used --force-device-scale-factor=1.5 it worked - I can see everything now. I could complain about the size of the text in the bookmarks bar, but I'm willing to deal with it because now I can read everything. For the record, here are the contents of my ~/Desktop/chromium.desktop file, so you can do it yourself:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Chromium
GenericName=Web Browser
Terminal=false
Icon=chromium

Categories=GTK;Network;WebBrowser;
