Do we have any information about the “small” in “small screen”?

For this screenshot I selected “Tails Troubleshoot Mode” and changed it from “vga=normal” to “vga=768” aka 640x400.

In this resolution whisperback basically works. (1)

The only thing that doesn’t fit on the screen is the window to add the PGP key. But at least it can be dragged into a usable position (2)

I think that’s good enough, rejecting for now.

Dear help desk: please reopen if this gets reported again and tell us what’s the resolution and the user-visible consequences.

Thanks Sascha for testing this!
