Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [comment:2 cypherpunks]:
 > Also Gentoo XFCE after upgrading to 6.5a5. The default new window size
 changed from 1000x1000 px to 1000x900 px.

 I have an update to this. I have two displays with different resolutions.
 The lower resolution (1600x1050) display was considered primary by the OS.
 I ran Tor Browser on the higher resolution display (1920x1200). Today I
 unplugged the smaller display and the Tor Browser window went back to
 normal size 1000x1000. It's like TBB was initially resizing the window
 based on the primary (lower resolution) display size, instead of which
 desktop the window was opened on.
