    I don't know why.. but for some strange reason lately, the Join chrome extension on Vivaldi v2.4.1488.36 doesn't open correctly, it just opens a super tiny square like in this picture: https://imgur.com/VVXjRqe

    The even stranger thing is that it opens properly on my desktop (see here, https://imgur.com/zjpFG0l) but doesn't on my laptop anymore.

    Hm.. when going into the Inspect tool (the same one from Chrome), I added a global height in the extension's CSS in the HTML body and it made the extension open properly again however it was still pressed up against the side of the browser. Seems like a simple CSS tweak to the extension should do the trick for Vivaldi

    What happens if you resize the window (with your mouse), then close and open again?

    I started playing around with computer settings and found out that it was because I had my PC's display scaling set to 124% (that's the only value that doesn't cause everything to be super blurry since the laptop has a really high DPI display). It's something with the way Windows 10 does scaling messes with the browser's scaling; which also messes with the way extensions scale

    --Edit--
    Huh.. changing the browser scaling to 105 seems to fix it when I have the DPI set to 124
