The thing is, your head appears as the biggest out of all the speakers' photos, so maybe you are a giant!
(Or maybe you just zoomed in on your camera more. 😅 )

Excitingly, Chrome Canary recently added support for <meta name="text-scaling"> behind a flag.
What is it? It's something that we're all going to start using on our websites to improve accessibility. Here's a blog post with more info. https://www.joshtumath.uk/posts/2026-01-27-try-text-scaling-support-in-chrome-canary/
This is an exciting milestone for me, because it's something I proposed at the CSSWG over a year ago. Thanks to David Grogan in the Chrome team for working with me to make this happen!

So I've just started working on the slides for my talk at @npub1nkt…dfpq State of the Browser.
I've had an excellently productive 2 hours working on... the title slides... and a BBC style end card...
Good grief.
