Many web pages appear with one line overlapping the one below it--the two lines are not vertically spaced far enough apart to prevent overlap.

Reset the page zoom on websites that look wrong: "View > Zoom > Reset" (Ctrl + 0 (zero))

If you increased the minimum font size then try a lower setting (default is none) as a too high value can cause issues like you described.
