    Does this answer your question? [How do I scale the enormously sized desktop icons on Ubuntu 18.04?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1030016/how-do-i-scale-the-enormously-sized-desktop-icons-on-ubuntu-18-04) – graham Sep 05 '20 at 09:38

    @User24601 not at all related! This is a HighDPI issue, where GTK2 applications do not play well. – vanadium Sep 05 '20 at 10:17
  • Provide information on your screen resolution. Also indicate precisely which applications are affected, and which not. My guess is that you are having a high resolution display. Depending on the toolkit of the application, it may not play well on HighDPI displays. – vanadium Sep 05 '20 at 10:18

You may use (GNOME) Tweaks to adjust font sizes of various elements. First install Tweaks by running

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

(or sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool).

Then launch Tweaks and go to the Fonts section, you'll get the options to change font sizes.
