Steps to reproduce

Scrollbars exist to reach cut-off contents. Sadly right now there are none

On the desktop that window does have scrollbars. Beyond that, developing for small screen form factors like phones or tablets is outside of scope for us. Our focus is solely on development for the desktop.

Is it intentional then that the scrollbars somehow disappear in this scenario? Phosh is basically just a fairly standard GNOME 3 stack with wlroots compositor, so that seems fascinating.

For what it's worth, nemo in overall is rather usable with a mobile form factor, so maybe it'd be less work than you think to make that work. (Could also easily be on a best-effort basis for an otherwise not officially condoned use.)
