I'm running Windows 10 and use Chrome

as my browser.

Sometimes when I click on a DU link posted in a DU post I get a really
large display. An example...someone posts that this was discussed in this thread and posts the link. When click on the link the display is super large and I mean super.

I've tried changing resolutions in settings, but it still happens. Viewing all other DU posts isn't a problem.

Any suggestions to correct?

TIA

After I got a newer model recently and still use the same browser yet, with the newer tablet I can see all the text. The other one drove me nuts!!!

Ease of Access settings. Maybe the hotkey for Magnifier is something easily pressed accidentally.

I'm assuming you don't lounge back with your elbow on the Ctrl or Alt key as I sometimes do.
