Description

### Steps to reproduce

After updating to Element 1.11.53, the text and UI are so much smaller and hard to read. I confirmed that all of my settings are the exact same. The same issue is occurring in 1.11.54, and I can replicate it 100% by changing among versions.

Here's an image of 1.11.52, where the UI looks fine:

Here's the same image in 1.11.54:

Notice how much smaller things appear in 1.11.54.

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?
The UI and text are the same size in Element Desktop v1.11.53+.

#### What happened instead?
The UI and text are so tiny and make it difficult to use.
