Gnome Desktop Scaling

Mar 2025

Introduction

After a default installation of Alma Linux 9 with the Desktop Environment, the default desktop is Gnome (at the time of writing).

I installed this on a laptop with a 2K display and everything was either too big or too small, mainly because the default scaling sizes were 100% or 200%
