Is there any way to enlarge the point size of the type Safari uses for bookmarks?
I sit about two feet from my monitor screen, and from that point, the horizontal list of bookmarks appears to be in about 5-point type, making it close to illegible. Can anything be done about that?
Mac mini, macOS 13.0
Not possible.
Reason - that is a System Font use across the Operating System
From the Images below you could putter in the setting and use Scaling of Display
Notation on that aspect. It will Enlarge the Entire Viewing on the Display at the sacrifice of View Area.
Also, fiddle in Accessibility Setting > Display
Increase Contrast, Reduce Transparency etc

Command key with Plus sign or minus sign will let you increase/decrease font sizes on the displayed webpage. The browser should remember to keep that change for that specific webpage. But as for the bookmarks listed in the menu bar, probably not. I re-read your question and didn't realize you meant only the bookmark menu. There might be an add-on out there to do that if you search for that.
Thanks. Yes, I'm used to using the Command-Plus or -minus for enlarging Safari pages, but I know there are a lot of Safari Extensions that I haven't searched through. Time to start searching, I guess.
You are welcome and thank you too.
The idea from previous Contributor on using the command + within the Browser itself should not be dismissed.
No, it does on increase the Fonts Size of the Bookmarks but does Increase the Appearance of the Website ones is viewing
Thanks for the suggestion. It isn't perfect, but I'm trying it now to see if I can stand seeing less screen real estate in exchange for bigger, clearer type. The Contrast adjustment definitely helps.
