Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have a 4k monitor and I have to lean really close to be able to read the text.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option to choose font size in the preferences. Alternatively, keyboard shortcut to grow or shrink the font. (Ctrl + or Ctrl -Mousewheel)

Additional context
I am running your Flatpak and my system is running KDE. I'm attaching a screenshot of the window when it is maximized.

And unrelated to my issue, this is the most user-friendly way to try out LLMs and still use CUDA on GPUs. Thanks so much for making this!

thanks for the suggestion, is this a problem you have with Adwaita (Gnome) apps or just Alpaca?

You see, as far as I know there isn't a direct way of controlling the font size of GTK apps, but there might be a way for you to change it on your system

@Stampede @Jeffser yea this is controlled by Gnome/Gtk. When not using Gnome, one can use commands like this to change font size:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'Monospace 11'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface document-font-name 'Sans 11'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Sans 11'

It should also be settable in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini (or gtk-4.0) but running those commands didn't change these inis, so idk
