Today is a great day for Phosh - moodroid - 03-31-2021

I was having a look on reddit and have seen 2 brilliant Phosh improvements both come along today.
I've tried both, and they both worked great for me.
This really makes Phosh much more appealing.

Non-integer scaling seems bad and basically a temporary solution to a larger problem; The lack of optimized apps.

But better than not having the ability to do it though. I'm certainly going to make use of it, as for me, 2 was very limiting and 1 made everything too small.

The screen scaling option is covered on the Mobian wiki here, as well as another way of setting the option for phosh.

I run phosh at 1.8 scale which is effectively at 400*800 screen, as well as scale-to-fit (also in the Mobian wiki) for evolution & liferea.
