Much of that is adjustable. It used to be, and may still be, in Gnome. It definitely is with other desktops. I use Mate, which looks more like the old Gnome, before they pretended a desktop was a tablet (which is when I abandoned Gnome), and it's configurable in it. I wonder if you've accidentally used some form of screen scaling, or aren't running in your screen resolution. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 7 15:41:52 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
