Description

When using screen reader, a lot of space is wasted on high zoom levels. See screenshots. When I read without glasses, I need to punsh in a lot

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open up screen reader on a blog post
  2. Hit ctrl + a bunch of times

Actual result:

see screen shots above

Expected result:

I would want the screen to fill without excessive padding. Some padding is fine but I would like it minimal at high magnifications for obvious reasons

Reproduces how often:

every single time

@proofofjogi There's a wide column option. Does that help? I think you have the default column view which is narrower.

I do not have these UI elements anywhere on my screen. Do they need to be enabled?
