When opening Mullvad Browser and visiting a site for the first time the window will minimize.

worksforme on windows. What is your OS?

What I do note is that on the first site visit the window size snaps to letterboxing dimensions - which may be due to https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/42192

i.e we shouldn't resize the window if remember last size is enabled - edit: maybe/maybe not = we need to think thru the logic

By "minimize" you mean literally disappear in the dock / apps bar or whatever, or rather scale back to a slightly smaller size making up for the disappearing toolbar (which would be expected, even though debatable, per https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/42192 ?)

On Windows the window goes from being fullscreen to a smaller sized floating window. Not F11 fullscreen, just maximized window.

OK, I can reproduce it on the Tor Browser as well. We probably don't want snapping down letterboxing size if the window is maximized. Open an issue on our tor tracker, thanks.

title is misleading - it's "initial window de-maximizes when..."
