Besides the command (shift) plus in safari,

Command, scroll in Firefox, and

Finder, show view options, increase font size. Helps my aging eyes a lot.

I see an aA ( increase font size) on the URL bar in safari, next to READER, which helps enormously to wipe out clutter, sidebars ( I hate sidebars) and make text readable.

Damn the habit of light gray text on white background. Sometimes, dark mode works. When it does, readability goes up 5X, IMNSHO.

Oh, there's also a page zoom in safari settings.

HTH
