I know how to make the text on each individual post larger (Ctrl-+), but
not the thread window.

I would go to settings on your device. Not while in program. I just upped mine on my Samsung tablet. It looked like a universal idea-ish.

I guess you're not the original notbob if you need to ask that
question You don't even say what you're using as a newsreader
(Thunderbird)... Anyway: go to Tools/Options/Display/font size and
adjust to your satisfaction. Should work, never actually tried it
though.

15 yrs and I've yet to see another "nb" post, here.

Apparently, you do NOT have the same version of "T-Bird" (Thunderbird) I
do, which is a version on W10 (60.8).

Anyway, Tools > Options > Display shows no "font size", plus you did not

post or threads or newsgroup or server).

The "Cntrl-+" is an old *nix keyboard trick and enlarges my "individual
post" text, only. Not even the "subject" line is enlarged. ;(

Oh yes. Mozilla love to change things around inconsistently.
