How do I increase the default size of text on web pages?

The common method to increase text size in a web page using Command then + or - is clunky and does not always work. The same is true about page zoom in View. I was shocked to see that this is not addressed in System Preferences > Accessibility. Vivaldi browser has a tool for setting default text size in web pages which is better than anything else I have experienced but it also fails at times. Vivaldi Reader View is very limited in what it can do. Please let me know if I am overlooking something. Is Apple unable to fix this problem that has continued across several iterations of OSX?

iMac, OS X 10.11

Increasing Default Text Size:


Use the Help Menu of the Web Browser:

Depending on the Web browser, look in the Help menu. It might have the answer you need for each Web browser.
