Details

The problem is that on high-dpi screens the content of the windows will generally be doubled or tripled in size, which effectively makes the new window far smaller than the author intended. On linux this is only a nuisance, as these windows are always resizable. On windows, however, the page can specify choose to make the window non-resizable, compounding the problem. Plugins and poorly thought out CSS rules can even make the content nonscrollable as well, rendering the content unusable.
