Smaller default window size #279

Open hanaral opened 3 years ago

hanaral commented 3 years ago

Problem

On my 900p monitor new windows are huge and immediately cause the dock to hide, it shouldn't really be this big.

Proposal

Use the same 4:3 window size Tor uses by default for all new windows

@hanaral do you know the default window size of Tor? I can at least reduce the default here as well.

From this reddit post it seems to be (at least on macOS) 1000 by 892. It might be interesting to give that size a shot, since it would be great to have the default size be in sync with another project

FYI this is how Ephemeral looks like on my older laptop with 1600 x 900 screen (aka HD+):

However, the default size is very comfortable on a FullHD 1080p screen, so consider that as well.

Here it is when the default requested size is 1280 by 720, which is still a fairly standard size for displays so I don't think it will be lacking any anonymity. Screenshot from 2021-04-12 17-06-08

Here is the same default size on my other laptop with 1080p screen:
