Comment:

 Okay, I think `zoom.minPercent` is not supposed to work as you think it is
 working. Thus, closing this ticket as not-a-bug. As far as I understand it
 `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` is the pref to use. Please file a bug at
 Mozilla's bug tracker if you think that's broken for you. We might be able
 to help with that upstream bug report.

Comment (by heyjoe):

 I know about `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` and I have tried it before using
 `zoom.minPercent`. Although it works the result is weird. For example
 setting it to `1.5` zooms all interface elements but the font of the text
 in the address bar, search field and bookmarks bar stays the same and as a
 whole the font in these fields is way too small. (Is that probably another
 bug which should be reported separately?) So basically it creates big
 elements with tiny text which is practically a waste of space for gaps.
 That's why, considering that UI fonts can't be scaled, I decided to use
 `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` and at least not waste space for increasing
 gaps. One is basically forced to choose between two options neither of
 which works as expected.

 Just for comparison: Testing in Chromium browser with `--force-device-
 scale-factor` works fine - everything is zoomed properly (fonts of UI
 included).

Comment (by mcs):

 I think this is also a Firefox issue in that there is no way to set the
 default zoom level.  Here is some more info: https://support.mozilla.org
 /en-US/questions/1147570

 I am pretty sure that `zoom.minPercent` sets the lowest value to which you
 can change the page-specific zoom level, but does not increase the default
 value. You might have better luck changing `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx`
 which seems like the right thing to do to accommodate a high-dpi display.
 Please let us know if that works for you.

 No, I am not saying that. I don't use Firefox.

 I don't use any Mozilla products at all, so I cannot investigate bugs on
 any of them. I just noticed this in TBB and reported it here.

Comment:

 So, are you saying this is working in a normal Firefox and just not in Tor
 Browser? If so, which Firefox version have you been testing with and on
 which platform? Right now for me, testing on a Linux system with a vanilla
 Firefox 52.7.3esr the behavior is the same as you describe. Could you open
 an upstream bug (at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/), so that we can get
 that on the radar of the Mozilla people and link to this bug in this
 ticket? Thanks.

 STR:

 1. Open about:config
 2. Set zoom.minPercent to 150
 3. Open any page

 EXPECTED:
 The default zoom should be 150%

 ACTUAL:
 The default zoom remains 100%. I have to press Ctrl++ and then Ctrl+- and
 then the minimum zoom stays 150%. But this has to be repeated for every
 newly site/tab.

 This is really annoying on a big 108dpi screen (everything looks way too
 small).
