Bug Description
on a 4k monitor the default 96dpi setting is typically too small to work with. setting it to eg 120dpi the guis become more readable. unfortunately, chromium browser from the snap package on ubuntu 19.04 does still comes with ultra tiny font for the url text window.

Thanks for the report. Would you mind attaching a screenshot that demonstrates the problem? I don't have a 4K monitor handy to try and reproduce the problem, unfortunately.
