Minigalaxy launch size is too large for Steam Deck screen, would be cool if it could be adjusted to work!

I just tried Minigalaxy on the Steam Deck since that would be kind of the ultimate open-source move, using a nice DRM-free platform with an open-source client. Sadly, the minimum size of the Minigalaxy main window seems to be considerably too large:

But bafflingly, after tabbing in and out of it for a while, it suddenly resized to fit on the screen. So it can fit but right after launching it, it just doesn't. If it was possible to fix this at some point that would be really cool, since minigalaxy on the Steam Deck is just a fun idea!

I tested this with Minigalaxy 1.3.0 from Flathub

I guess it could be make to default to maximized view instead of a set width and height.

How about checking the size of the smallest screen connected and if it doesn't fit, launch maximized? That might do the job while not bothering anybody with larger screens.

I think that should be possible. I think GLib or Gtk will have some function for that.
