A possible way to fix if youtube font is too small or big

Today suddenly my youtube font was really small and i was trying to work out how to fix it, and there seemed to be all these different complicated solutions and what made mine go back to normal was just holding the control button and then scrolling the mouse wheel. hopefully this helps some of you at least!

i wanna pin some solutions other ppl have come up with in the comments for different operating systems or no mouse etc

Esther Nwankwo says:
if u dont have mouse, try holding control and then pressing "+" or "-" button

Ken says:
For macbook pro, hold command button while pressing "+" button to increase size or "-" to reduce (no mouse, touchplate mouse)

Jay S says:
hold down ctrl and + at the same time and it brought up the zoom icon for reset and fixed the font size on all the windows they had open.

I wish i could pin all their comments but im only allowed to pin one, so ill keep everyones solutions in this one!
Also sorry, i dont know how to change it on an ipad or iphone.

i did it by mistake while scrolling on my laptop and just couldnt figure out what the hell happened i searched a lot and then just left it like that for 2 months until i found this video thank you man straight to the point ! sometimes people having completely different lives and sitting so many miles away from me just randomly do something which provide a significant change in one's life ! so majestic and wonderful if you notice it, Thank you man !

FINALLY the solution! And not even Google knows this clever and easy fix. Once the "accident" happens and you are left with tiny letters and no idea how you got there, nobody gives you a solution. Most videos are about changing the size INSIDE the videos, not the font OUTSIDE videos and all in general, except this one!!! Thank you so much!

I cannot thank you enough for this!! My cat was on my lap and nuzzled the keyboard and all of a sudden the font was super tiny. It was driving me crazy. Thank you!!!

[esthernwankwo]

hello guys i found a fix for those of us without a mouse

just hold ctrl and keep hitting the "+" button to increase or the "-" button to reduce....

HOPE THIS HELPS :)

[cerberusbonsaiarboricultur]

Dude thank you SO much, has been driving me crazy!!! Well done, just 1min (most would take 2-5X longer to get that across, you knnow how it is!!)

I have been stuck with a 20% for about 3 weeks now you're a life changer mate!

[networknexs]

Your video should be at the top of every search. It saves a lot of time rather than watching a 20-minute video with no solution.

[Bob-dfvw]

Thank you much, all of a sudden YT was about four times the size. I searched for an answer and finally found your post. It definitely helped me.

[jerryhawkins]

I'm so glad you were able to tell us how to fix this without making us read something on youtube. I listened and the solution was so simple. Thank you.

[EnglishWithAshaMam]

Thanks, I wasted my precious time looking for the solution until I came across this.😢
Solved my problem!!

[RSelcov]

Hold control and press the + to increase the font size. Press the - to make it smaller.

[thoughtspeaker]

This helped a lot. I was panicking because it suddenly got all zoomed out on me and I didn't know what happened, and then I had the thought to look up how to fix it on Youtube, and the pinned comment here helped me fix it
