Any person with good eye sight or well adjusted glasses should immediately notice that the text actually becomes blurrier and harder to read despite the increased text size.
What’s the current state of Linux support for high dpi screens? As of two years ago I had some issues with getting things to work right in KDE, especially with GTK apps, by manually fiddling with system font sizes and button sizes, before I ended up donating that laptop to someone else.

Maybe they are still using an old school (X11?) DE?
echo “Xft.dpi: 210” >> ~/.Xresources
