Perhaps try https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1239467
though I don't understand their "Don't choose a value below 1.0 or
about [is that above?] 4.0", because the value I have is -1.5
(ie negative, and I didn't choose it).
But I don't know what this would have to do with i3wm or Plasma,
or anything else outside FF. (I don't use a DE so I can't check.)
Cheers,
David.
