Hi Claude,

thanks a lot for your reply. The trick with the console does indeed help a bit (I'm currently at Version 23.6.0, Build 62). Note for other users: after having opened the Console via Ctrl + F12, the "Debug Database View" can be accessed by clicking on the three bars next to the console tab where you would also close it. This way, there is a search bar popping up where you can search for "font". It will be applied after the next restart of AE.

However, only a few UI elements have this font applied. Most importantly, the Effects tab and the layers are not affected by this. For me (on a 4K monitor), it looks like this which is still an accessibility hell even for users with normal vision:

I totally agree to a YouTube comment I've read here: "[...] why project panel and media titles are so small, should I use a [...] lens to read the transform number size? And I'm not an 80year old".

All the best,

Hello ADOBE, July 2024 and this problem is still not fixed. The text size of the user interface is really too small for our increasingly large screens. The "Console" method (Ctrl/Cmd + F12) only allows us to increase the size of the title of the different windows, the content itself remains really too small. We need a setting for the UI display size.
