Considering that the font size was reverted back to the standard tiny size for ants, it's most likely not a bug, but I hope I'm wrong.

I have taken two screenshots: on one side you see the subject being big, this is K9 version 14, and the other one is a picture taken from another phone that is still running version 13.

Version 13 would be my desired font size. Therefore, I'm asking to add the font size setting in general settings again.

What other way could be used to describe a feature that has been removed and ask to be added again? Is this a bug or a feature request? I cannot see any reason why this was left out since it was there from the beginning of K9 development.

Any updates about this? Why is this bug being ignored?

Is there any way to draw awareness to this issue other than to close this here and reopen the same issue again?

The developers are already aware. They are redesigning the message list user interface and have tagged font related settings for review as part of the design.

See the developers comments in related tickets https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/9709#issuecomment-3249281014 and https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/10147#issuecomment-3586582916
