Also, you can disallow websites to pick their own fonts there.

Alas, that won't stop websites from using CSS to make the font appear as 
large or small as they want. :-|


A few things that might help :

1) Reader mode. if available/shown in the right of the URL bar.

2) (Temporarily) Disabling CSS (as avilable under "view" -> "page style" -> 
"no style").  It might have some side effects though ...

3) Using CTRL + and CTRL - to enlarge/shrink the page contents (use CTRL 0 
to reset).   This one will be remembered for the page you used it on.
