I was wondering about that, too. When you take a look at other web-based code editors online, their font sizes are somewhat small by default. When using Visual Studio, I set the zoom/font-size to between 110%, and 150%. It depends a lot on how tired my eyes get. One of the best things I've ever done was to buy reading glasses. They only cost $15 or so at the supermarket. I get the lowest strength magnification, which is either 1.0, or 1.25. You don't realize how much difference they make until you try them.
In terms of default font-size, I most often use 11 point font. Back in college, I took several typography-related classes. I learned that 11pt Helvetica font is the easiest for most people to read. For code editors, I prefer to go with Monospace. Sans-serif fonts are what I prefer because I find them to be more readable.

I haven't heard of Panda Syntax before. I googled it and found some examples. I like what I see, but the commented text needs to be brighter. I made the commented text in my editor display as green. I figure that if you're going to document your code, it might as well be easy to read.

I prefer the comments more out of sight, but VS Code lets you override theme colors, so you can have it like you want it

I felt like that for a long time, until my employer renovated our office space and installed LED lighting. The ambient light is now brighter than before.
I was talking to one of the youngsters, and he suggested I try a dark theme. It works! I have less eye fatigue at the end of the day. My 'floaters' are a lot less noticeable with a dark background as well.

Got reminded of this movie watched sometime in 1980 or 81, while hearing the news at the US Presidential candidate's rally earlier today.
Lest this post be construed as political, will not include any names.
Fortunately nothing untoward happened.

Was an awesome movie.
Watched in again a while back.
