Make font size user-adjustable

I have somewhat poor vision, and often bump font sizes up in Chrome using the CTRL+= shortcut. Unfortunately, on The Old Reader this makes the sidebars and top navbar unnecessarily huge (http://d.pr/i/JcoK). For some reason, this also causes the j,k keyboard shortcuts to function strangely (two or three keystrokes necessary to go to the next story).

Can we have a simple preference to set the font size?

    Yes, please. I'm getting a very condensed font which makes things even harder to read. Wish we had some choice about size and maybe condensed or normal fonts.

    Quite right. Every time I read The Old Reader, I can't stop but question my own age of eye sight.

    I think this can learn from Google Reader which uses + or - to adjust font size of the article. Not all text on screen - only the article. That's fairly enough.

    Using iPhone 3GS I have no control over font size so this feature is very important.
