The font size of post description irks me as it is smaller than what I have set for comments. I want it to be of the same size as comments or slightly larger.
Try changing this setting:
Settings shortcut: View type > Selftext font
I think the setting only shows up if you are using Slides or Cards View, so if you are using something different, you may need to temporarily change your view type and change the font size, then switch back to your original view type.
It is amazing this feature works here as well.
But how does it work please?
You just tap on the setting from the comment and it takes you straight to it within the Sync for Lemmy app.
No, how do we put the setting in the message!
Press and hold the setting you want to share. It copies the shortcut to your clipboard. Paste it in a comment and submit it.
Thanks
Whut! How do you link to a setting like that?!
When you’re in the Sync for Lemmy Settings, just long press on the setting that you want to copy, and it gets copied to the clipboard, and then just paste it in the comment.
Thanks! This worked for me.
This does work (and yes you have to change view type, then the setting, then change view type back).
However, one more small issue - you can’t change the line spacing like you can for the comments. I find it too squished so I’ve increase the line spacing for comment font, but can’t do that for the post font, so it all looks very uneven
You could post a Feature Request on Sync for Lemmy’s GitHub issue tracker, and maybe the dev would consider adding this option.
If I understand it correctly, you go to Settings > View Type and in Fonts and Sizing you choose either “Self Text size” or “Description Size” (I don’t remember which one of the two), so you can set a larger font for the text in posts.
If that doesn’t change it then I’d suggest report as a bug mayhaps? It worked for me at least, hopefullly it does for you too!
Edit: “Description font” os for the one where the user and instance appears (e.g. (@)name(@)name.lemmy.com), you’d have to increase the one called “self text” font.
The only options I have under Setting -> View type -> Fonts and Sizing are “Title Font” and “Description Font”. I have nothing called “Self text”.
Do you have the “View Type” set as “Cards” or “Slides”? The option will only show up with any of those two types, all the other types will only let you change title and description.

Awesome, that did it. But also changed the UI font size. Not a big deal, the default was much too small. Thanks for the help!
