I use my phone at 1.0 zoom factor because I prefer having more content on the screen. After update, scaling of some elements is way off.

Few examples: https://imgur.com/a/WOqTF

Covers are also scaled differently on default zoom level than on 2.1.2.x

What do you mean by zoom level? I only know the option to scale the font size.

Zoom factor for the UI, as explained here: https://together.jolla.com/question/140953/change-dpi-on-sailfish/

change broowser zoom for you is not enough?

Can you change zoom though? I mean, not by pinch-to-zoom gesture, since most mobile sites lock you out of using it anyway. I genuinely like using my device at 1.0 ratio, don't judge me.

Ok, seems like the way pixel ratio is calculated for Sailfish Browser changed in this update. Thanks to @coderus for a tip. If anyone ever comes across the same issue (based on amount of feedback, doubt it, but I totally will so that's something I guess, as always):

Go to about:config and change layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to something else, for example 1.5. I can live with covers looking weird, but I really prefer native browser, even though it's terrible at rendering webpages.
