Fonts in Firefox seem skinny/small?

Just set up Plasma and more or less have everything looking the way I'd like it to. I installed the Dejavu fonts and configured them in the fonts menu for system use, however fonts in Firefox seem off. Seems like it's skinny, maybe even too close together in some cases, just not right. Is there anything I can do to get Firefox to look better under Plasma5?

You can configure your fonts in firefox, and if you mean UI fonts: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … plications

Yeah It's not just the font size or type in the firefox settings. it's something else, they're just not right. They're skinny looking and bumping the font size up doesn't seem to actually change anything. Not sure what's going on sad

Look at this screenshot. You can see how tiny the font is. Changing the font size and type in firefox settings doesn't appear to have any affect on it. Notice the font on the tabs is also somewhat skinny/small as well

NOTE: My font looks fine everywhere else on my system, it's just in Firefox, and Chrome that it looks this bad, and hard to read when it's that skinny/small

You didn't link the screenshot correctly and if it's user interface fonts you will have to configure them for GTK apps, read the link I provided, KDE has a gtk config utility with kde-gtk-config make sure you configure a common font there.

Be sure to uncheck 'allow websites to use their own fonts' in preferences.
