This happens when a macOS server connects to my Windows laptop too. Both have high-DPI displays (Macbook Pro and 4K screen on the Windows laptop)

I would greatly prefer to run the server on my Windows machine, but this means I can only run the server on macOS, which is tough because of all the tricky security settings, and because the key bindings are much more natural on Windows.

Would be great if this could be fixed...I think that the Windows DPI compatibility stuff is also getting mixed in here too.
