Bug Description
Potential Workaround for Firefox/Thunderbird (extracted from comment)
=======
about:config and setting layout.css.dpi = 0
Binary package hint: firefox
I always reduce the font resolution (dots per inch) from 96 to 80, because I find the default size way too big.
In the new versions of Firefox and Thunderbird (today's updates), the font size is much smaller than in the rest of the system.
When i switch back to 96 dpi, everything seems normal. So the fonts of FF / TB decrease faster than the system fonts.
