Zoomed out by 100 what? How did you adjust display? What resolution is your display?
Go to System Settings and adjust Display scaling and Font size.

Could also be that the Op is speaking of the txt size within either Chromium of Firefox, yanno - that Control mouse wheel zoom and not actually the overall fonts of the system or the resolution. But most likely not. Sometimes ya need clarification.

Plasma's systemsettings* for fonts has a checkbox and a selectbox for forcing DPI. Try checking the box and selecting some value higher than 96. 192 should quadruple font sizes. Also, report back here with input/output from Konsole running inxi -GSaz --vs if more help is needed.
