Chrome in game mode running in strange resolution
I tried adding Chrome to Steam (using the Add to Steam option in the context menu). It technically worked. However, when starting it in game mode, chrome is shown in a strange resolution. www.whatismyscreenresolution.org reported the device resolution (correctly) as 2560x1600, but the browser viewport was only 1011x998.
Is there some trick to getting chrome to work in game mode?

It's because it opens as a window in whatever size you last used it in on the desktop
Microsoft has a tutorial for setting up game pass on the desktop, you can follow that to get the right launch options for setting the resolution
That can't be right, I had Chrome maximized (I always do).
I'm afraid I don't follow. I can't seem to find said tutorial, and I also don't understand what Microsoft or Game Pass have to do with Chrome on Bazzite?
