I hate to say but the text there is impossible to read.

Apologies: it is a desktop app, and so I recorded the demo on [HD resolution](https://github.com/kaustubh-karkare/glados/blob/master/src/d...) to make it look as close to my intended experience as possible.

I'm assuming you're on mobile, so later today, I'll try making a separate demo video specifically for this case.

On tablet it’s too tiny as well.

It did seem like for most of you pr demo about half the screen is blank. I think you could easily reduce the resolution by 1/3 and not confuse the demo at all.

Okay, I had to make a few adjustments, but here is a lower resolution version. I verified that I can read the text easily on my phone.

Better. I can’t decide if the line wrapping on the one element is demonstrating a necessary feature or suggests a little more trickery on sizing. I’d probably leave it but it would secretly bug me.
