Shall I label #1239 as Newcomers, Kévin Commaille?
I should probably be, but I haven't looked into it yet, so I'd rather mark as Newcomers issues I can actually help with | 14:52:22 |

Hu, nightly doesn’t display the pill in my previous message. I thought completion didn’t work and had to switch to EW to check. Indeed. It works if I reopen the room, and I also get warnings in the logs. So issue, please? | 14:54:09 |
| Kévin Commaille | It might be due to my work to not keep members in memory | 14:54:39 |

| Kévin Commaille | Yep | 15:08:06 |

| Alexandre Franke | The keyboard shortcut page is so tiny and cute. | 15:51:05 |
| Alexandre Franke | I didn’t realise we had so few in nightly. | 15:51:19 |

 Paul 👨💻 | Weird, if I send an Element Call link in Fractal, it doesn't show up... wut? | 19:40:41 |

Weird, if I send an Element Call link in Fractal, it doesn't show up... wut? Other links do however? | 21:28:16 |
| Paul 👨💻 | Maybe because it's just because it's a multiline link, will have to try more | 21:40:45 |
| Alexandre Franke | TimSmall: do you have large text enabled? The history width is not the only suspicious thing on that screenshot. | 21:53:35 |
| Alexandre Franke | Kévin Commaille: have a look at the screenshot above. The missing pill is showing differently there. ([OBJ]) | 21:54:49 |

TimSmall: do you have large text enabled? The history width is not the only suspicious thing on that screenshot. Indeed, the icons are very small, it looks like only the text is scaled, instead of the whole UI.
This particular problem might be fixed with libadwaita 1.4, because of the introduction of the "scale independent pixels" unit, which adapts sizes according to the text scale factor.
But it won't change the fact that this looks weird.

 Alice (she/they) | why are you changing text scale factor instead of scale factor? | 08:28:45 |
| Alice (she/they) | like, that's not what it's for | 08:29:05 |
| Alice (she/they) | it's there for large text option (1.25 scale) | 08:29:18 |
| Alice (she/they) | and everything is optimize for text scale factors 1.0 and 1.25 | 08:29:28 |
| Alice (she/they) | so sure, in 1.4 clamp and sidebar will have a larger width (don't expect it to look good tho, it won't - it will just make sure it's readable), but not much else will | 08:29:55 |
| TimSmall | I change the text size because I otherwise get scaling artefacts in fonts - I have very high visual acuity and the blurring causes me eye strain. This works fine with Qt/KDE for the most part. | 08:53:58 |
| Alexandre Franke | Looks like a worse case of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/fractal/-/issues/1219 | 08:55:32 |
| TimSmall | Hi visual acuity is generally a good thing of course (it definitely makes things like microelectronic soldering much easier) - but unfortunately being outside the normal distribution like this does cause problems with computer displays - and I suffered with years of eye strain until displays got good enough. | 08:56:03 |

For a while all was good but recent font rendering changes have made things tricky again. | 08:56:44 |
