New Frame starts extremely small (alien.top)

Hey all,

I've been acquainting myself with Emacs (vanilla) and am currently reading through the tutorial. I'm at the part about creating new frames and, as you can see on the image, the new frame shows up small and squished. This also happens sometimes when opening Emacs regularly. I doubt that is intended. I have not found any topics related to this behaviour (maybe my google-fu is just bad). Anyone encounter this before and have a potential fix? I don't have an init file yet and I'm on Fedora if that helps.

Do you see the problem when you start Emacs with emacs -Q?

Check your value of option default-frame-alist...
