In a 2019 update, facebook made its page font smaller. While the layout is still clean and somewhat easy to read, the smaller font size can give you a headache after a while. Unfortunately, Facebook itself does not offer a mechanism to change font sizes, but your browser does. Most of the major browsers let you zoom in and out on a page, meaning that you do have some control over the size of the fonts on the page.
