I do think the issue you are describing is fixed in 0.51
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1084
The other issue can be resolved. Which distribution and version are you
using?

That makes boxes bigger but it's not scales uniformly.
All the graphical elements (bang slider etc) stay tiny AND changing font
size messes up old patches because everything is crushed together and I
have to clean up the patches again.
Is this resolved in Pd 0.51.1?
The reason I'm not trying Pd 0.51.1 right now is because it brings me to
another problem:
It is not available with *sudo* *apt install* on linux yet, and last
time I compiled pd from source myself, it worked but I couldn't double
click pd files anymore nor access pd from desktop and I don't know how
to install properly so that doesn't happen.

Which version of Pd?
As for 0.51.1, you can go to the Pd window and in the Edit menu, there
is a Font entry, here you can change the GUI font size. (Make sure you
do it from the Pd window, not a patch window, where the same menu
exists, but only changes the patch font size)
However, the prompt windows and file choosers will still be minuscule.
I filed an issue earlier
